lol post before and after pics

Not.

Wetsand it with a fine grit paper 1500 should suffice if you take your time. Spray it with real matching paint and a gun lol, wetsand with 2000 grit. clear coat then wetsand lightly with 2000 grit again. buff and wax

wont be perfect but will do the trick

From his talk he needs to just pay someone to do it. Painting is a art form. I am just getting into it. I've painted 3 motorcycles(and some spare parts laying around). Now IM about to paint my trans am. Best of luck either way

awesome man - I totally agree. Painting is an artform, ofcourse I want my car to look perfect when the paint dries.

I def. gonna take your advice and get it dont right.

bet that transam gonna look off the hook when ya done.

What can I expect to pay for a re spray ? - done right.

I really want to spray my hood and bumbers, you think that just re painting these areas would suffice .. or should I re paint the whole car ?

thanks -
