so i started working on painting the center blade silver...well...i got as far as taking it off and primering it...wont be done today, so looks like i drive around bladeless...i actually dont know when i will be done, it has 3 layers of primer on it, next ima sand it down some more, than paint it, give about 4 coats of ultra silver...than wet sand, than 3 coats of clear, than some more sanding, some rubbing compound, than some wax




when im done the end caps and the blade will be silver, my outside color themre will be silver body, black RKsport lip, and black wing towers, with silver end cap and blade

 

hope it goes well

 

will look good when done !!

 

how do you get it all apart like that?

 

remove the end caps, take the 2 TRQ bolts out, 2 on each side, than take the blade off

 

I like your spoiler.

 

only thing left is the wet sanding, rubbing compound, polishing, than waxing, and it should be done
the wing did not come out 100% there are 2 blemishes from when it dropp while i lined it back up to bolt on, i used touch up on it, but u can still see it from close, but pic wise, its hidded

 

So wait, this is a rattle can paint job?????? *cringe*

 

yep, rattle can, took a few can to get the whole wing...damn them tiny cans, and in the end the color is off a bit, new paint compared to 2yr old paint oh well, i like it, just have to go back and wetsand some more

 

i like it.

 

If you do rattle can right, you can make it look just as good as factory! And it seems he did!

Good work!

 

mine was rattle canned lol
ta da! lol you can even see the reflection of the stripes off the trunklid on the underside of the spoiler in pic 3

 

it seems but you cant really tell from pictures you would have to see it in person

 

not to highjack the thread or anything, but how did/do you get those end caps off...

 

^^^ read post #5

 

looks good. if you take your time it always comes out good. i use air tools but i honestly think if you take your time with the rattle can you can get similar results

 

i have a 40gal tank and air gun at home, i woudl have a power drill if darrion wouldnt of stole it, i had to use my damn rachet to get those trq's off...but yeah its not done yet, needs a wet sanding, and some rubbing compound and darrion(justin) atleasy my paint doesnt get all ugly and i dont cry to CSS for help on it when u should of know it was ur painting messing it up bro...

 

looks good, maybe need alittle more clear coat on it,

 

you need to re-sand down that area completely and re-do it. make sure ur sanding between coats and letting the paint properly cure before attempting to sand and later buff and wax. try using steel wool instead of sand paper its less abrasive at times.

 

i tried stee whool, it tore that **** up, so now i went with the lighter grade paper, and im not looking for perfection, if i was i would of paid the dealer 120 to paint it, which i still might if at the endi dont like my work...at this point im not going back unless its to hand it to a paint shop...

 

if i stole you drill i wouldnt have borrowed hazas today and the reason my painting messed up was cause of the humitity

 

looks cool

 

u stole it i know u did...and BUY A DRILL...they cost like 20 at vatozone, i know i got one to replace the one u stole...but the one u took actually cost me $$$

 

Free and Stolen are 2 different things

 

me: "hey, ima get this drill here ok"
manager: "no problem man, we have a bunch of them"
me; "sweet, thanks"
*takes drill and puts in car, than comes back inside*
me: so...
manager: is that ricer justin still running around with your primered kit?"
me: "yup"
manager "tell that ****** im still waiting on him to come race my cobra"
* i lol'd*
manager: "didnt he say he beat a charger?"
me: "yup"
manager: "well tell him my cobra is waiting to beat this charger killing 2.2"
me: " i dont talk to him no more"
manager: that boy is as useful as a dick on a priest"
*i lol'd*
end of conversation
