Pics of my new Navy Blue Paint Job: Photoshoot

Tam · Post by **Tam** » Fri Apr 17, 2009 5:30 pm

If anyone has read my project thread, this is what I've been doing during spring break.

I spent 1 week painting my car using the Rustoleum technique. And I'm not even done. I still haven't started wetsanding/buffing/polishing/waxing yet...but it looks good enough to me already.

I have mixed opinions about the grill, it stands out too much on my dark blue car. I don't know if I should keep it or take it off.

I am sorry for the camera pics. God damnit I need a real camera!

Let me know what you guys think.

Rustoleum spray cans? If so that turned out amazing?! What did you use for clear, or is rustoleum naturally glossly like that? I actually like the grill. If you do anything to it, maybe color match the chrome lip on it.

Color me impressed though; job well done. Is that the mopar rear lip or the 02 r/t rear?

Nope, I got the quarts, and I

'ed them on. I did not use any clear, and it is naturally glossy like that.

And yeah, its the 03+ mopar rear lip on my non-RT 01 rear bumper. Just the normal bumper.

Thanks a bunch dude! That means alot coming from one of the cleanest cars on the boards!

And to all who likes the rear lip, I hope you know that I had to modify with a heat gun it to get it on. It wasn't exactly plug and play.
