bored, painting tail vent things

Well I was bored and found white paint..

Removed the back vent things and decided to paint them white, heres how it is so far:



(taken a few min ago)

Still alot to dry so i'm waiting. I have no idea how this will look and will just order another stock set if it looks horrible.

So, when I put up the final pictures and you feel it's 'riced out' and you need to let all of that rice hating anger out, write it on paper, and then throw it away.

not COMPLETLY dry, but dry enough for me to hold up and snap a quick picture. I guess i'm not too displeased, i'll see how i like it as a few days pass.

the paint looks good, did you sand, prime, etc? I don't know how well it'll look, after seeing others do it, but at least you didn't half-ass it.

I wasn't aware anybody else did it. Can you think of a post or something I can search for to find the pictures? that would've really changed my decision to try, but I don't know what they're called. lol

somebody did red vents on a black car. It looked kinda tacky IMO.

I saw the red vents on the black car, also saw yellow vents on a black car.. They look pretty bad. Not my cup of tea...I'd just leave them black.
