will never be as good as a 2pac spray job.....................but if you get it right and use a gloss to cover it will do the job just fine!

should do, just be sure you dont get any dust in the paint, better still for the 10 bux for the paint you can add another 15 and have a shop do it

Then there's the art of keeping them glued/attached on

Different strokes for different folks

And to be on topic

A Rattle can job will never be as good as a professional job but it can do the job untill you decide to either respray the whole car or just respray the eyelids

Good luck

It can come out as good as a panelshop but requires alot of prep work and time.

Prime it well and wet sand between coats.Probably need at least 4-5 top coats and clear coat then a good polish and buff.
Also as said keep any dust particles away as this will destroy your work

you can get eyelids done at a panel shop for between 15-30 dollars to match the colour of ur car exactly.. id say pay the extra and get it done properly..the finish will look much better and saves u the hassle..
