Budget balla presents: DIY Painting.
Take in mind, this is my first time AND it's with spray paint: gimme a break. primered pieces:     My supplies  bondo/hardener, adhesive, primer, color, clear coat  new wing  what happens when you don't fill cracks  like these.  already have been filled though  maybe i shoul've bondo'd more  light coats   some close-ups   up close and personal  more to come. More sanding, sanding, SANDING! This post has been edited by purplegt4: Apr 20, 2008 - 1:51 PM |

looks good but there's nothing worse than having splitters and skirts (that you paid some good $ for) not being the exact same color as the rest of the car. Been there, done that
 pony up the $ and get them painted professionally by a shop, you wont be dissapointed. -------------------- |
