Paint was cheap...its a Dupont Chroma that was color matched, used about 12 ounces...not much at all. I would recommend getting all your other paintable items and shooting everything at once if you had to...saves time and paint. Yeah the spoiler is just a urethane rubber of some sort...nothing fancy about it really. After i get my kitchen remodeled i will be setting my paint booth up for more projects and then i will be shooting some 500e flared fenders for my ride

That m3 style one is nice. I do think it is a bit thin myself as far as the width in comparison to mine. but I got a hell of a deal on mine.

$80.00 shipped from germany which I could not resist. and insurance paid to have itpainted and installed. long story don;t like talking about it. Well not so long, but still don;t like toalking about it.

I had found it on ebay, and a friend was in germany so he paid for it and picked it up and then brought it back with him on the plane.

aside from the paint gun, what is involved in making a paint booth? My friend has a paint gun and does a good job on small parts, but he says he needs a booth to do larger stuff.

Where is this CarShine place located and are they legit? I know i can ask them directly but i was wondering if anyone, particularly Ashman, has bought anything from them? Are the bodykits replicas or authentic? Many look very nice!

I think (not 100% sure) that the .au in the address means Australia.

THanks! I like her alot too!


Oh and to make a paint booth all you need is an area thats tarped off and vented well. You really don't need alot of expensive ideas...just tie up some ropes and clip the plastic sheeting to it, put a fan or two venting out of the booth and a fresh air inlet with a large filter cut into the plastic. Hose down everything clean and get to spraying!! I've painted many a car/motorcycle and parts this way with pro results...not Maaco crap...like 5 thousand dollar results.

Take it easy ya'll gotta finish ripping out my kitchen...

The quality kinda sucks but it will do, I know its not the look some of you like, but most people like this hotrod look, gotta see it in person. very sporty and the only way I could fit my winter tires

I love the way the wing looks on your car. I really cant wait now.I like what you have done with your car.I would love to drop my car but after my coilover experience I want nothing to do with it.
