I Painted Thy Front Fascia

The projectors were sold. I wanted to go with more of a stock look. I kind of wish I kept them, im dealing with aquarium corner lenses now.
 


get the back done so i can see this and then take pics during the day I really think that I want to do this. great work so far
 
I will be painting the rear tomorrow. The fogs are actually nokya 2700k bulbs. I didnt feel like going the HID route and wanted to see if I could get the look with halogen. I think the bulbs are great and are brighter than my stockers.

I definitely recommend painting the fascia for everyone!
 


i would paint if if my car sat in the garage most of the time. Chips are going to be pretty noticable on that black.
 
that my problem right now to. ive got toooonnnnnnsss of paint chips in it and there are stripes in it because it musta flexed at some point so a new paint color would be a nice change
 
i know how that goes, highway driving kills the front of your car, and i spend over 200 miles on the highway per week OUCH
 


would like 4 or five coats of clear help with rock chips from forming or am i just gona have to repaint this every other year or so?
 


i just redid mine about 3 weeks back. i sanded down to just the unpainted plastic, did 3 coats of paint and 4 coats of clearcoat. then after it dried, i armoralled the bumper. THEN i dove it, and six 95 mile trips to and from school later its all still black! you cant even see the chips until your face is an inch away, but they are still black so i think all that paint and clear helped
 
Agreed, looks mean, nice. I wanna do the same to my gp gt. I see you just used a black gloss and a clear.. What grit sandpaper did you use and did you use any primer before you painted or anything special for painting onto plastic?
