Dude I'm soo wanting to go ahead with a paint job now. I keep thinking I'll wait till i see rust but... Now I want!

Wet sand. Wet sand. And more wet sand. Lots of places clear and buff only. Black can look literally like black glass if done right.

I'm assuming since your budget-less , your going this route

i vote for keeping a little orange peel, if you go wetsanded flat and buffed, everytime you wipe your car with a cloth you will put scratches in it, if you leave a hint of orange peel you will never notice it.

[SeanGTP]

You need to take that window banner off and get yourself a nice clean set of retro-fitted headlights. I figure you may as well make it look that much better if you're doing all this work...

[Spartan GL]

the banner is coming off, and i like my projectors.

[twol8uluz]

First person I've heard that says they like their projectors. I like the way they look and wanted a pair but mostly everyone on here says otherwise. What's ur secret??
