did some work on a friends 3pc tails....was rather proud of the outcome.

[gaboonviper85]

started out sanding with 600 grit to get the years of wear out....then buffed to help find stuff i missed...left one was done

then taped them out after ruffing them up with 1500 grit paper

3 coats of vht night shade and them removed the tape

then maybe 7 coats of clear and sanding with 2000 grit paper plus compound "meguiars ultimate compound"

did all this at work while my machine was running....took about two days in total as i couldnt work on them non stop.

Nice work. Too dark for me, but I like how polished they came out. I should really polish line up this summer.

Hell, they looked amazing before the tint. I would have just made it more blood red than black though.

But if anyone is serious and interested pm me.

They look darker than they really are because bad lighting...they do look blood red.

This is up close

Yes...with spit and elbow grease;-)

Now that the paint set overnight with a heater on it I did another buffing

Makes me want to do it so bad. Unfortunately it would heavily contrast with the rest of the car's appearance. Old.
