i did the exact same thing as the clear from spray can on plastic (even with the base coats over it) looked like it had been hairsprayed lol.... i think i could of got the clear to work but it would of taken like 10 coats and lots of wet sanding all day in the garage an i was basically high off the fumes after the first 2 hrs as i didnt have my respirator mask up here lol so i just said screw it and semi-glossed mine too

No problem bro, hope you enjoy
I forgot to ask you, was the TB shaft grind mod worth it? Think a retune would be necessary to make it safe?

Received in the mail today, will be installing it, but usually a retune isn't necessary however because of the other mods that I am having done then yes it will be very necessary

It's a free mod and adds some hp!
