I asked on srtforums and never got a response, what grit sandpaper did you use to smooth out the mirrors before priming them?

Theyre 14 bucks a can at the dealer which is super gay. JMB has them for 8 not including shipping. It might equal to the same thing. They are small cans too. a little bigger than a soda can...

Hmmmm, I like that look, looks great! Can't wait to see the mirrors painted as well. How did you do it, spray can, or paint gun?

I sprayed it with the can... I took my time and did a lot of sanding and re sanding......


I think i may need to hit the pillars one more time with clear though..

did you use any kind of primer on the pillars? I like that a lot, it is REALLY growing on me. As faded and stuff as my pillars are, I may JUST have to do this when I put my car under the knife as well. (Engine rebuild next month, maybe a body overhaul as well :lol:)
