Thanks guys.
It was good practice for me since I have a car to spray here real soon.
Once I get the front nose prepped I can send it off to Steve Nunez for his magic air brushing.

I've been real busy lately and have been putting this paint on the back burner.
But I HAVE to get it to the artist.
I went out tonight and finished the front piece so it matches. I didn't take a lot of pics because I'm dead tired but you'll see it came out like the rest of the case, nice and glossy.
Painting plastic is not quite as easy as metal. But it's done.
Here is the before pic of the front piece and you can see it had a dull plastic look compared to the case -
And now -
Much better - it matches!
Here are a few random shots showing how it looks. Now I can get it shipped to New York. I am crossing my fingers the shipper takes it easy on the package. I can just see them kicking it out the door of their truck.

so shiny!
Very nice job on the basecoat. Are you using a single stage paint? I can't wait to see what Steve does to it. He's a killer artist.
That is impressively smooth.
The case is now in the mail on it's way to http://www.stevenunez.com/index2.html
He is excited to work on this project and that makes me even more excited!
I have to get moving on finding the hardware I want to use. I haven't even put any thought into that yet. I will be looking for some sponsors so I need to hammer out the details on what I will be using.
I'm going air cooled and will be doing a lot of custom lighting as well. Other than that I guess I better start looking at what's out there and would fit with this build.
