Default What a difference paint makes

When I purchased my wonderful RV-9A in January, everything was great. She flies amazingly well but, I always wanted her to look as good as she flew. In steps Kracon Aircraft painting at my home field of KLHM. They took my idea and a few pictures of paint schemes and made an amazing difference! Just wanted to share pre and post-paint pictures but I can't seem to figure out how to do this.

Thanks for the help. Those of us who are technologically impaired appreciate any help we can get.
