2.0 is ooozing class from every angle, it looks fantastic.

Too kind sir. Thanks!

RC did an amazing job…It is officially “A Mule of a different color”..😎

Don’t mean to saturate the forum or this thread with pics
This is your rodeo … & I’ll up my membership so you can keep posting if that is what it takes for the hard drive deities to be satisfied. (My first choice would be to sacrifice one of the Dungeons & Dragons Masters that work in my IT shop that look down on me as I interrupt their game with a problem)
 
It took me a second to comprehend what I was looking at. This is the “firewall”. 😳

It's looking good! I love that color.

Two mixes down the chart from the YOTA Buffalo Brow. We were talking today, the Cygnus white-ish (ivory?) bezel and top will really set it off.

Now you've gone and done it. It's official. Mule V.2 must have one of these Rolls Royce Flying Lady hood ornaments: ;)

We received some funny looks when painting it brown was mentioned. Those too polite, wrinkled brow, you’ve lost your @#$&*%+ mind looks 😎. It’s two mixes on the chart from Buffalo brown (darker). So, I reckon it has YOTA genetics.

Pretty sure it’s “gonna work”.

Trying to dial in upholstery next. Non standard color is in order. Blasphemy in certain circles but, that’s the fun factor personified with an Aq tub.
 
I’ll throw out a suggestion. Procar seats for a OEM look, covered in custom leather in a King Ranch saddle leather style.

The King ranch interior is top shelf and the Procar seats are legit. If I didn’t have solid stockers I’d be on them like a phat girl on a brownie. We just stripped and painted all the seat hardware/seat backs/frames and jump seats. So, I gotta dance with what I brung.

It’s covered because we’re going to spray under the tub and part of the interior with tintable (color matched) Raptor liner. I think they will even shoot a coat of clear on top of that for extra protection and durability. So wherever you see the portions of the interior that’s been taped off, that area will get the tintable “treatment”.

The liner is sprayed on last. It’s easier to tape and seal on the clear coat than it is on the Raptor Liner. The tub will rest for a few days before they mask off the painted area in preparation for the liner application.
 
Another photo bomb. 🙄

These shop pictures show some really good shots of the brown base coat..I think this is 2nd coat, not sure.

Photo bomb #2.

I know I’m posting up a “bunch o’ pics”. I want to highlight the product from Aq, the work from RCLC and the progression of 2.0…

These shop pics really show the color coming through. Not sure which coat this is.
