Eric has done quite a few speed yellows over the years...his work is first class...you might do a search and you might even find some pics...

379 is a good price, I have a body shop and did my own center console, its easy but if i were to charge someone else it would be in the $400 vicinity

Eric will do it right. The process needs to cure between coats and he adds a flex agent so it wont crack. Turnaround is great. It's the best mod I've done.
