I just colour coded my moudlings using this "DIY" awesum stuff man =D Worked wonders!!
** Just a tip guys: Remember to let the "colour coded paint" dry before spraying "clear coat" because the chemicals in the two paints mix can make a weird gray colour... that what happened to me but I just sanded it down again and retry

this is not true with 2pac. with 2pac spray one over the other just enough to let the surface of basecoat dry
haha, did this to my gf's ek today, side skirts n bumper strips all around, gotta love DIY. ill post pics soon.. one thing i noted, there's only 2 screws at the front of the skirt.. also how'd u do the mirrors? diy for that?
best way to do mirrors would be to actually remove them (easier this way)
just take the door trim off and use a flathead screwdriver, the black triangle should pop out with a bit of pressure.
should then find 3 screws inside there holding the mirror to the car, unscrew them and you have a car without mirrors. tape and spray away =)
I remember using this clear coat on my amber corners, it was.. um, K&H Clear Coat Acrylic or something. Anyways, after i sprayed it, it went a really matte look
now im spraying my lip kit, and wells, i don't want it to have a matte finish on them. though the kit is fibreglass, and the amber corners where plastic/glass or whatever it was, so they are different materials.
should i just buy polish (anyone recommend anything) from autobarn just incase. because my car is pretty new, and the paint is in.. well ok condition(alot of swirls and hits though . ) But yeah, from far, car is so shiny, even if when you come up close and its all brown dots over it from rain.. so yeah
