[12233445532523682346]

[yungkidnf]

[thunzie]

Man, that color on the samples looks amazing. How does pearl work, I mean if you painted black pearl onto a silver base coat would it look silver on some angles and black at other angles?

[DaleJrfanBrett]

[kongshia]

"cadillacs" blueish-green color looks stunning too

[X3RIVA951]

[motasolo]

[YungStunna0491]

[manny30250]

@meade916 you should paint your rims

[hamrtime15]

You should of shaved all your door handles and got door popers

[jayr040509]

@meade916 WO0W... 9yrs old car? but it look's like a brand new... =) nice !! what paint you use for that car?

[cocon57]

a ;ittle less pearl will look better!

[meade916]

then when you paint your car, use less pearl LOL - its a go, already started.

[Nyllet1221]

why less pearl? MOAR lol

[cocon57]

i am a painter and the pearl dissplayed looked 2 crowded !maybe just a matter of 1 less sprayed coat! or less fluid on the coats!

[meade916]

your a painter but i would never let you paint my ride because you have nothing to show. There is nothing wrong with the pearl here. How bout you make a video and show us how its done.

[cocon57]

i heard you say you toned it down on the pearl because it was starting to look like what? at 1:13 but thats ok im no hater the way its looking it going to come out perfect !

[meade916]

sorry to snap on you bro just get a lot of know it alls here who dont know shit LOL - it is coming out great!! thanks bro.

[deep124]

damn that paint job is gonna be swweet! luck you man!! :p

[lamborghininextdoor]

What rims are those again? There sweet, diggin the paint.

[a7green]

....... The City where you live is paying for all of this ???

[meade916]

nope just the damage they caused. All extras are out of pocket.

[spartalis]

have u thought of painting the rims also?

[whymeth]

i would say lambo doors and powder coat the mags but its your truck very nice work keep it up boys

[scarface3131983]

black paint wouldve looked sweet, or even that crazy ass chrome paint...ive only seen it on here (youtube)

[twistymcslide]

poor wheels .... hope they clean up well .

[meade916]

why? nothing got on them.

[twistymcslide]

oh im sure there fine , but theyll have to come off to be cleaned right . that primer dust does a job on anything it lands on , im sure theyll tidy it up for you though . not bustin on you , i appreciate your work , and its a shame this happened , but shell be back to lookin bad ass soon .

[meade916]

there is no "primer dust" on the rims. Nothing to tidy up. Thanks for the concern though!

[rrgreenw]

Thats a huge fucking body shop!!!!!!nice

[tehglu]

love the colour!

can't wait to see it finished

:)

[rellik331]

awsome colour, cant wait to see it all painted up!

[cglazer745]

team WCC search it, murdered out 2 door Tahoe for Detroit tigers player Nate Robertson

[meade916]

why search it, i could care less about someone elses car LOL

[LethalRG]

whens the update coming!?

[mybruteforu]

hey man im not trying to hate by any means but i had a 02 pathfinder i paint that same color. black with red pearl in it and it looked maroon.

[meade916]

its more to it then JUST red pearl but im sure yours looked nice too. It may look maroon with the black base but it wont be purple LOL

[twistymcslide]

its all about the painter....no offence . but thats the truth . proper prep and application are key , theres so much involved with autopaint.

[ROCKNOTEAR]

good

[hpconnectmoon]

dont u love people saying the exact same things... its ur truck, i would do mine diffrently but thats me. but ur way is fuckin sweet man!!! cant wait to see it finished.

[bucki58]

that truck is gonna be allllllllll niggerd up

[bigreggie21]

hahaha man your a fuckin homo you stay tryna talk to me man look i got a wife man do everybody a good deal and kill your self bitch hahahaha

[onionbootyman]

meadecherrys hella clean.

[Noxx91]

shaving is removing the handles and adding poppers or something and filling the holes in so its a clean finish (i think)

[bustergonad69]

shave the door handles........does that mean they have grown hair? lol

[lowriderman999]

Hey man have u ever considered shaving your door handles???

[JacobBennett45]

thats looks like a sweet body shop. good ones r hard to find in Oklahoma. I like the color, and getting rid of that wiper should cut down on some radels. Nice Job Steve

[rockhills]

I guess the accident wasn't so bad after all cause it got you going on a whole new paint job. :p

[TexMexX3]

dude i aint talking shit am just sayin but its cool if you like purple i love your videos i am a subscriber i just dont digg that color i guess its better then what you had my sister has the same thoe two tone silver with the candy top it looks tite but everybody got there own taist

[meade916]

its not purple its black with red pearl. Period. thanks though man :)

[taufan8687]

cool man.. maybe the dark pearl gray with red pearl would be nice for me.. :D

[floridaboys13]

hey steve great job on the tahoe.. hey what if you get the same rims in black.. ..  or like in the same color....

[slamjam93]

looks phat, should shave the door handles out, just a suggestion

[FORDGTFANATIC]

i like that color thats going to look crazy at night! do you have hid's in your truck too?

[ShowtimeSPL]

Keep that baby lookin shiny, use only the good wash and wax.

[winnipeg002005]

You should play GET THAT MONEY by lil wayne nd bidman it has really low bass

[PreshPromAsia]

does SMD mean what i think it means?

[andy7dud]

lmao SMD means u no wat ;D

[sasukemax]

Steve how much did your paint job cost? I am thinking about getting a paint job like your's except blue over black and was wondering about how much its gonna cost me

[Nafarrete]

@SMeade916

Yeah I haven't updated my videos in years but I'll record one in a couple days..! thanks!

[chrisb9696]

What's up Steve? You should take off the rims and put the stocks on until the car is finished just to be on the safe side so the rims dont get any overspray.

[meade916]

total waste of time. They will be fine.

[FraterSolzai]

they should take the doors off for a complete color change. the didn't R and I the quarter glasses ethier. Have they already painted the jambs?

[meade916]

too many wires in the doors. I didnt want them to mess with it. Do you know how many speakers are in each one? If not check it out.......and also, rear quarter glass was not removed because i didnt want them messing with my box or system. Nothing will show, roy is good!

[FraterSolzai]

@meade916 Looks like you put some timeand thought in it ..Good luck

[mitchellreed1]

im totally diggin the new color steve!!

[deathbecomesu187]

would suck to get hit in the same spot again after all that work gets done man .

[elflacoloco17]

is going to look sick ass fukkk

[BigJayDogg2009]

If you took off the roof rack, where are you going to put your spare?

[cream69112]

Thats a ridiculous colour, can't wait to see it when its done.

[DCJodon]

Dude. You're doing it perfectly, don't take advice from any one on here.

[TexMexX3]

its cool but it looks to purple it shouldve been candy green or red with some gold flakes that would set it off

[meade916]

nahhh you can paint your shit that color ill stick with mine....and fix your monitor its red LOL

[31TAZFJA]

hello meade916

[briandcheever]

Bout time you got rid of the roof rack. I always thought that thing was an eyesore lol

[ryandoe11]

idk if im diggin the new color

[meade916]

i know i am :) cant wait!

[jayd1563]

lookin good steve!! very nice touch with them blending in the rollpan seam!

[bentley2006]

You should get your calipers done while its in, get them matching dude =]

[77dodge77]

Hey steve since your canging the tahoe up a bit you should put clear tail lights on it. it would complete your ride. your my hero man keep up the good work.

[meade916]

clear tailights are illegal and worse then that PLAYED OUT like 10 yrs ago......no thanks.  Thanks though man!!! :)

[krogerman30]

that is super sick color there might have to paint big red that one!

[yarun0]

its gunna look good steve thank god the tank wasent messed up

[macman113]

might as well get the break calipers painted to match while your at it. 2 different reds might look weird

[meade916]

no it wont, they look fine the way they are.

[austinlandrey]

You cant kill the Willwood look that would be a sin. They look fine and if you were to change them they would look homo and last time i checked Steve is married to a women not a man. I love how everyone like to basically tell you what to do with your truck rather than make a if you want Suggestion. He will be telling you to paint your rims pretty soon. LOL

[zmccollum01]

Thats gonna like sick. You wanna get ride of any of your old boneyaed stuff

[pyle1982]

Thinking it would look sick if you shaved the handles off and put some poppers in.

[jmb145]

hey steve what kind of rims are those and 24 or 26? im lookin for rims for the 300 i got and want 26's do you think it would fit with no major mods?

[skudvayne]

@jmb145 24s will fit with small mods... dont know about 26s....

[ROCKNOTEAR]

....Bu renk arabada güzel olacaktır.

[ROCKNOTEAR]

Bu renk arabada güzel olurdu

[lemongrapesfilms]

The color reminds me of the default OSX wallpaper.

[ROCKNOTEAR]

these colors would be nice in the car

[paulyp2008]

Cant wait to see the finnished job .. its gonna be awsome !

[seanbigboigreen]

u should see if they let u do the paper trick after there done paintin that shit would be slick

[pr4t1kg]

nice fleck pain dude cool love it

[jmesl8er]

badass color looks like bass boat flake

gettin the door handles shaved?

[nightstalker711]

you should def get matching DUB floaters

[meade916]

you arent serious are you???? oh HELLLLZZZZ NO

[unkowngangsta]

Cherry Meade looks awesome

[andythewooferguy]

what worries me is that people wont recognise you on the road

[meade916]

uhh i think they still will LOL! especially since i just showed the world the new color.

[andythewooferguy]

oh yeah, well just i case anyways looks good

[originalshotta357]

If you don't mind me asking steve. How much did everything cost you labor and all? I'm looking to do the same thing to my tahoe.

[Bryant072008]

also...u know they will hear u coming...u ever gotten a noise pollution ticket..

[99LSDyme]

dont forget your liscense plate..... thats not hard to recognize! lol

[3HaloPlayers]

@andythewooferguy lol i think he will be more recognize because of the unique color

[bangaskeet]

haha good point!

[ryandoe11]

@andythewooferguy I know they'll deff hear him!!

[austinlandrey]

@Steve Meade Hey put a aircraft style gas cap on your tahoe. one of those nice aluminum and rivet ones. Just thought i would run that by you but of course its your truck. Thought that might look nice

[meade916]

sounds tacky. Paint works well :) thanks though man!

[austinlandrey]

LOL I thought about what i said on this comment and was just about to say the same thing i changed my mind that would look tacky. You got good taste for car body work. LOL that might have gone with the old color and stock equip but not anymore.

[meade916]

word up man thanks bro! :)

[bigreggie21]

yo dat color is sick man you goin be shittin on dem haterz man cant wait too see it

[bucki58]

@bigreggie21

They have paint shops in the ghetto!

Your Accord will never have cool paint!

[meade916]

i dont know, nor do i give a fuck about your Obama deception bullshit.

[Danknugs18]

@meade916 haha, hell yea.

[plzkillme45]

Yes!!!!!

[rozic]

hey man this is about passion for cars and sound, don't connect it with garbage like politicians and politics!!

i just can't wait to see the tahoe painted :)))

[2001silverado363]

Exactly, those ugly chrome gas tank caps are thrashy looking.

[hamlin704766]

You should get smoked tail lights or chrome ones, then that would look awesome

[meade916]

thanks for the advice.

[antonioromero209]

how much is the paint job cost you if you dont mind me asking?

[meade916]

im not really going to say but they gave me a good deal since Roy is a long time friend - lets just say even if I didnt know Roy, i think they are the shop for me, very VERY professional and top of the line equipment. The guys helping Roy are also very good :)

[sempaystz]

you have to smooth the door handle

[meade916]

nahhh i like my handles.

[Diggingforclams]

@meade916 you should get black rims to match the paint it would look better

[meade916]

no it wouldnt chrome looks better. Get black rims on your ride.

[3321Gamer]

looking good bro

yea

[muddasucka69]

i think you should have gone with a black, a more classy look, still an awesome no matter what paint is on it

[meade916]

it is black. It just has red pearl over the top of it.

[TMDLex]

I like the colour. Will be interesting to see how this turns out.

[luislepe1]

[reppin49dank]

[Pizzitch]

[kikinmachado]

[the1onlyteagro]

Nice choice on the color bro, thats gonna look sick

[GVVJG]

[SqubaProductions]

u should paint the rims too in the same colour :D it would look awsome but only inside and the sides leave chrome

[joaokamedo]

i love it.

[ZipChipCA]

Looking good, can't wait.

[08IS350]

Perfect time to add more deadener before they put it back together. Good progress.

[atomdragon4]

Can't wait to see it finished Steve! Damn it's gonna look SWEET!

[98snakeeater]

Are you shooting the door jambs as well?

[meade916]

[illmaxwell]

almost looks like 94-96 impala paint except impala paint looks the same all the time

[drefamugrad09]

The type of paint Meade is getting on the hoe is that considered Pearlescent?

[ctdv55]

How many miles does your hoe have on it for being 9 years old Steve?

[RandomCensorship]

have them spray your calipers too!

[dannyhookii]

@RandomCensorship I was just going to say that. The red is going to clash with the dark candy.

[meade916]

nahh, they look fine the way they are.

[evilmurderproduction]

damn, I dig that color. Can't wait to see it finished

[MrNismogtr]
