My car's almost ready for paint

My car's sanded and mostly aligned The gap is just barely wider at the top then at the bottom between the hood and fenders but they match on both sides.. also the fiberglass hood is slightly lower in the right hand corner .. should look decent not sure how much to expect for a paint job costing $2400 with house of kolors kandy paint. Can't wait to see it done but it's taking forever for my new gfx to be shipped. I just called today and they said no later than the 10th now. The gaps are actually better than before. I guess I didn't know the hood was lower since the gap between the hood and fender was wider on the right side and even on the left before and it's not a very big difference. It's coming together my painter is going to work on it more

Hope they came down in price since I bought mine from them. When I was looking for a WW Kit, Andy's was one of the only places taking orders for them. That was due to the Ownership change, so everything was on hiatus for about a year. Because of it they could charge whatever they wanted, so I ended up paying $695. + shipping which came to $815.00

I heard they were down to about $700. shipped, but can't remember who told me that. Caleb said that fttp. or someone like that had 'em for about $595. Anywho, I can't wait to see that Burple Color your car's gonna have.
