That is awesome!  Did you do it yourself or have it done?

It is first painted with basic blue colour,then fixed with fine sandpaper,painted with "Electric blue",fine sandpaper again,then painted few times,and lots
of lacquer.It's done with spray gun.You should see the place..Lousy carage,full of dirt and car parts...But very nice job!
