So far been painting the Challenger piece by piece with no color match issues here is the latest part the front valance and lenses

50 year old OEM lenses look pretty good after 800 Scuff pad and clear

The lens looks nice but why didn't you repaint the silver ? I like Krylon Dull Aluminum  :twothumbsup:

I was going to but the masking on the part was a bear for me tried like 4 times then I thought about just getting new ones but I want the Oem my thought was I'd rather have that part looking somewhat original than having a botched masking job with silver on the lens

Looking real good.  Make sure you see it in the sun and are certain the color is matching up.

That's gorgeous! Burnt Orange?  I have a 70 Challenger in that color and I'm debating if it should go back to original or something different. Hard not to choose original when I see a fresh coat of paint in that color.
