Just sprayed the car, going to add the clearcoat and buff and reassemble.. everything should be finished by this weekend.

STAY TUNED
 
Dude I'm soo wanting to go ahead with a paint job now. I keep thinking I'll wait till i see rust but... Now I want!

Wet sand. Wet sand. And more wet sand. Lots of places clear and buff only. Black can look literally like black glass if done right.

I'm assuming since your budget-less , your going this route ;)
 
Re: Spartan GL's (01/25/12) PG 26 For Car Sprayed Photo!

i vote for keeping a little orange peel, if you go wetsanded flat and buffed, everytime you wipe your car with a cloth you will put scratches in it, if you leave a hint of orange peel you will never notice it.

Unexcuseable! Hell if I can do mine in my driveway, you can get it done. Trust me, it looks so much better.

Re: Spartan GL's (01/27/12) PG 26 For FINISHED PAINT!

You need to take that window banner off and get yourself a nice clean set of retro-fitted headlights. I figure you may as well make it look that much better if you're doing all this work...
 
Re: Spartan GL's (01/27/12) PG 26 For FINISHED PAINT!

the banner is coming off, and i like my projectors.
 
Re: Spartan GL's (01/27/12) PG 26 For FINISHED PAINT!

First person I've heard that says they like their projectors. I like the way they look and wanted a pair but mostly everyone on here says otherwise. What's ur secret??
