 Paint Job - Part 2 (3/05)    

Click to Enlarge
In March of 2005 I had KITT go back to D. Duncan Auto body for some additional paint/body work. 

I had always liked the fender vents that the Trans Am had, so I got a couple of new T/A fenders for my car.  As is turned out, the fenders I procured weren't in as good of shape as my original fenders.  So, the shop ended up using only the portion Click to Enlargeof the new fenders that had the vents.  They did an incredible job of splicing in the vent portion to my original fenders.  Looking at the car now, you can't even tell they merged the two fenders.

Duncan Auto body did a fantastic job!
