    More pics. Still have to secure the bunks while raising the front of them about 1/2 inch, install the LED lights, and the diamond plating.

    Hey Titan, how did your local Sherwin Williams guys like that color combo and name?

    Great color combo. I say you name the color Jetlink Red. I know Bad Ass Trailer Red is nice and all, but Jetlink Red has a ring to it.

    Looks great!! Don't forget the Supra decals.
    Yeah, I'm hitting it pretty hard. I want to get my boat off my friend's lift so he can use it for his boat. That's a good idea on the color name, but I like his buddy's name of it too. So maybe combining them like: Jetlink's Bad Ass Trailer Red. Hey, but now I want some credit... I mean, I picked the color! Surely this isn't too long: Jetlink and TitanTn's Bad Ass Trailer Red. Has a nice ring to it.

    My local guy was as personable as the lame colors they were mixing. He said nothing about the name, so I made a joke about not being able to pull up the color in the computer. Nothing. I made a comment on working for weeks on getting the right shade of red. Uh-huh. So FINALLY he made a comment as I was paying. "You had this originally mixed in Illinois?" Finally some recognition that this is not a normal transaction. "Yep, it was the closest place that knew how to mix enamel."

    Wow! Sounds like Mr. Personality there! Oh well, any idea when the boat will be coming off the lift?

    That looks awesome man!!! Great job on the color Jetlink!

    That looks great. I can't wait to see it with the boat on it. That's going to look so sexy.

    Trailer looks great! Even if it's not an exact match, I'm sure the expanse of white between the cap and trailer will fool the eye. Can't wait to see them reunited.

    So I went and got the boat today. I busted this whole weekend and basically got the trailer back together. I still need to do pin-striping and the Supra logo, but that'll just need to come later. I'm real pleased with how everything turned out.
