I know. I'm planning on going to get another can of that paint and some clear coat for my nose cone. Believe me, I definitely thought of that. That's actually the initial reason I bought the paint Haha! But I ended up using it for my CAI and my door. I'll get another can for the bumper when I get some more money and when it warms up again. We're supposed to get snow here again on Monday. So I gotta wait a while to do anything else after tomorrow.

Ah yes, I forgot about that, going to need that clear coat. I'm going to be repainting the lip of two of my wheels. I scuffed them! So I'm going to be buying some high gloss black spray paint, Popsicle sticks and sandpaper. I'm not sure if they got clear coat though.

Oops! A hair dryer can be your friend when doing stuff like that, specially in cold weather. Looken good tho.

I was using a hair dryer. It was when I used the WD40 to get the remaining adhesive off that the paint came with it hahah

I would stay away from the fizzy can paint if I were you. Save your money and get a real paint job.

Looking forward to your led cluster write up though. Interested in doing it in mine.

At least the weather was nice when you did the door. The next couple of days won't be so kind.

You've definitely got your car heading in the right direction. Keep up the great work!
