IT LOOKS GREAT!!!


I finally decided to try my hand at some DIY painting and I think the results came out pretty good...definitely not as great as Rob's work.. but I feel rather proud I did it myself...I even managed to get rid of the ugly yellow dipstick....I also managed to repair my front bumper which had a wicked curb rash on the corner of it...all in all a fun diy project...

 

Looks good. Next you'll need a set of Pi-thon polished or colored hose clamps.

 

Where'd you get the paint from? It matches perfectly.

 

Good job on the painting. But jeez man clean everything else.

 

hahah.. I know...after I installed all the painted parts I realized how dirty everything was under the hood...just finished wiping everything down and a little simple green here and there did wonders...

oh yah.. I got the paint from paintscratch.com...they mix up paint for whatever car/color you have in aerosol cans and I bought a touch up pen as well

 

Another good source for paint is http://www.towerpaint.com/
All you need is your paint code and they send the exact matching color.

 

Looks nice.

 

looks good. should take more pics after everything is cleaned up

 

much cleaner..still a lot of nooks and crannies to wipe up but a lot better of a pic

 

nice job man

 

I have a set and I am worry about how they hold up. Anybody had problems with them coming off?

 

Very nice man, great paint match. How long did it take you?

 

including drying times between coats, probably about 2 hours, could be quicker but I was watching tv and enjoying adult beverages while painting
