I asked about doing just the cladding if someone dropped it off, basic black would be 600, 750 for the LineX extra.
Now that the topcoat is fully cured, my wife said it looks like the vampires from twilight, sparkly. With the black, you are gonna have to wear
I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them.

Better pics, for some reason, I am having problems with my camera phone photo quality:

It feels a lot like a GI Joe toy now, I keep gently laying tools on it, like it is still painted, I can throw a brick at it now! I might start hanging out at the LineX dealer, it is a cool trade, and I tend to learn things in one shot, I told them I would work for free if they teach me. The owner seemed cool with that, he already started showing me how the process works an the equipment and whatnot this afternoon.
Still need ideas for a new plate, "MILSPEC" would be cool, but probably already taken.

Still some are available with a full 7 characters; for example; their awesome looking "Scenic Autumn" version (with leafy border background) will accept a full 7 characters and would be a perfect artwork choice for your tanned VX.
I tried inputting various personalized vanity plate choices on the on-line website using the "Scenic Autumn" background (with 7 characters) and they all came up as "already taken"; which is total BS because some examples I tried surely would be available, so there must be a computer glitch with the on-line website service.
My best advice is to call the Virginia-DMV at (804) 497-7100 and talk to a live human being actually manning a DMV computer terminal and see if the vanity plate of "MILSPEC" is available.

No va plates for this guy. I don't want to give this horrible place any more money than I have to. SC PLATES, only like 25 bucks extra for custom plates.

Ho Hum, pretty much done. All I have left is to shoot new screws for the fender lining, rattle can the door jams, and mount the spare tire rack. They did a perfect job with color match. I test sprayed, the black matches the Armor anti-rust black I have and the tan matches the rustoleum tan bedliner perfectly.
Went ahead and did some emblems in Ford Cardinal Red, which matches the high temp red from rustoleum.

MARLIN-- Okay, SC it is. So I visited the SC-DMV website, and what a cluster-F of non-information and a total worthless website without any personalized "test to see if available" link. My best advice is just to call the SC-DMV Call Center (manned Help Desk) at (803) 896-5000 and ask them to query "MILSPEC" in their DMV computer database to see if the vanity plate is already taken.
In regards to the lack of people not making comments about your tanned-out VX-- Here you go:
