Well i got the side skirts as smooth as a babys bottom and turned my garage into a paint booth with clear plastic surrounding my car and i got the matched paint. its finally time to get rid of the primer look (its only been a week and i feel thats about it for the rice look.
So now its time. WOO HOO :goodluck:

I wouldn't expect it to turn out too great unless he has done it before or knows what he is doing. You blending the paint on the car so it will match perfectly or just painting the primered part. What part is primered? I thought it was red, but mismatched.

Tonight also seems a little cold for painting IMO.

If you get it too smooth you will have peeling/chipping problems with some paints.And if you're a noob at spraying clearcoat, I hope you got low temp catalyst/reducer.

I figured he busted out dad's collection of Rustoleum... One of those colors had to match.
