Yeah Nick, its my old car. I have had this car since 1998. It was originally red and then painted a very dark green. It looked black until the light hit it (or the paint flaked off in the door jambs then it looked red)
Hey all - I'm not one to point out the faults in anybody, but special circumstances call for special measures.
I dedicate this thread to SIMAN - and I will start it off. Please, dont limit your discussion to this forum. Quips from all sources on the internet are acceptable.
I dont think I...
:drink1: I hate to resurrect an old thread, but lets place homage to Simann's last post!:beer:
I never thought that seeing somebody nailed with a lifetime ban would actually make me happier.
I keep sanding down the hood, and little pits that werent feathered out before the last coat keep jumping out. Im really worried that some of these pits have been covered by the shitty maaco job and will flake off after this coat. Not to mention that the underside of the hood is going to be a...

Put it in terms of $. Do you know how much money we waste on foreign oil? Billions and billions.
My TDI jetta gets 50 hwy/42 city. It has plenty of power and drives very nicely. Why doesnt the government set tougher...
Personally, I think maaco may be a good deal IF you prep the car and bring it to them ready to paint. Prepwork is ALL the work. I had the car painted way back in the day (2000 or so) so I cant give you a good estimate.
The POR15 is high quality shizzle. Permanent to say the least.

I have the car totally stripped down. Glass is removed (except for windshield and hatch glass)...
