:o Any brand of paint reccomended? How much grit paper? (the texture; what did u use for the sand paper) How much was the paint. How much will i need? What will i need? (With the clear coats and the primer and the this and the that; i haven't a clue what to use and in what order to use them) How many coats of what in which order? Where can i get it? Pep Boys? Sorry I really have no clue about painting and stuff. Beucase i always heard that painting that plastic-like vinal never lasts; that if you give it a few days it'll start to peel. ~~~ Help?

i started with 200 grit and worked up to 600 to make it smooth. after u sand them as much as u like then clean up. let em dry. then just get some bulldog brand adhesive promoter spray, or adhesive promoter flex agent and tie coat all in one. follow directions on can. then use some plastokote paint. 3-5 coats, then some lcear coat. follow directions on car. i also sanded th epaint before the final coat to make it even smoother. i got all the stuff from pep boys.
