weight isnt a big worry i have, hell i have train horns on there with a gallon tank and big compressor.. last time i weighed the car it was 3510.. i still get 30 mpg, so im happy..

electricevo no prob.. that headliner sucks to paint, takes forever.. i just left everything out of the car for a day, had no smell... hell my car stills smells new inside... how i dont know...

 

yeah headliner took forever to paint, went through about 4 can on that alone!! then cane the oh sh$t handles those were another pain. but all in all every came out clean and left everything out of the car overnight and put it in this afternoon with the windows cracked tonight a lil just in case. I'll post pics as soon as I get em

 

Holy Purple batman

 

if you find a screw up, just spray a little paint in the cap and use a brush to apply it..

 

oh **** good idea man thanx alot man, for the most part everything came out golden but even the slightest stratch just takes the paint right off, needless to say I did a decent amount of touching up after everything went back in

 

thats odd, how did you prep them... once my paint was dry, it is hard hell to even scratch it, plus its flexible...

 

damn, i like that bluish interior, keep it up bro

 

I wiped them down thoroughly with windex then let them dry then I sprayed them. Was that the improper thing to do???

 

windex is not a great idea.. i wipe the parts down with rubbing alchohol, then wipe dry, heat them up with a heat gun, spray, reheat, 3 coats.. using a heat gun, 3 coats can be laid, and the part can reinstalled withing 5 minutes.. next time you paint, heat gun is your friend.. just keep the heat moving..

 

Car looks really clean. I am guessing you like blue a lot? Great work on the third brake lights!

 

i'll see how the coats fair after a couple of weeks, if i'm still having some issues then i'll strip the interior again and respray them using a heat gun but the headliner at least is out of the way thank god lol.

 

no need to redo that... if they start lifting, you will have to sand them down and then redo them the way i said.. 3-4 coats on all the plastic, 1st coat should be very light..

 

theres something different about that blue color or its just me. but it still looks sharp

 

damn sand down?!?! oyyy how bout some paint thinner would take it right off no prob. I don't want to jinx it but so far everything is ok. I mean it's not like i'm gonna go around my interior trying to scratch it all up lol thanx again for all the info man hopefully I'll have pics up this weekend now that the weather is looking to fair up some.

 

lots of wax ?

electric evo, just scuff it up with 000 scuff pad.. its like a brillo pad, you can get a big pack at walmart.. if you see something chipping, just scrub that area good to smooth it out, and then just scuff up the rest...

as far as any probs, you might not see it for a year, but if there was an unprepped spot, it will up show sometime..
