haha thanks guys. I changed my mind like 100 times on what color i was painting it. anyways...i did get a chance to spray my side ground effects tonight. picked up a better gun with the air regulator at the gun so it would turn out better today and be more accurate also. i have it in the pictures. first i sealed the primer, waited for it to dry and sprayed the paint on. i didn't follow directions so it might now turn out as good. i mixed it and everything but i missed the step that said put a light tack coat on and then 2 medium coats. i just saw the 2 medium coat part until i went back later and saw it. oh well. i might re do them. this was really just to see what the color looked like anyways. i probly will paint the headlight buckets black, adric. http://adweek.blogs.com/photos/uncat...mini_boobs.jpg haha how bout that for my front end? j/k j/k
enjoy

that is gonna be awesome when your done but take your time and do it right the first time and smart idea to try it on something small first

blue89vert 04-15-2007 12:59 AM

yeah i woulda been pissed if i did on my car what i did on the bottom of one of my gfx. i forgot to do the fan adjustment and it was really straight forward instead of like spraying vertically a lot. idk how to explain it but it sprayed way too much paint in one spot and there were runs all over. i know im gonna get impatient and want to spray my car asap but im gonna try my best to do it right and take my time.

No it is not the same color as your car.. MBM is really dark..
