12$ for the can..3$ for some clear coat...definitely better than pre-cut vinyl..given ive tried that before and it was more of a headache than this....if i had the opportunity to try this again with the VHT id do alot better of a job, im no pro-sprayer..but im satisfied with it..cup half full right? i had some spots where i oversprayed and 1 spot where its a lil darker than the other side..sanded a spot down to re-do.. but es all good mayne

 

oldest trick in the book, looks good

 

looool w.e jus droppin knowledge..i didnt know about this stuff until recently..im sure im not the only one.

 

you need to wet sand that orange peel

 

looks ok im not really into the blacked out tails on the new lancers/evos but its a good bang for the buck

 

nice

 

What?

 

i agree wit ya, but with the ralliart's the thing that jus kills it for me is the yellow turn signals...other than that they r dope, i hate that combo of clear bulb/yellow lens...shoulda been the other way around, but i guess they were cuttin manufacturin costs..if ima pay 350$ for sumtin i wanna be 100% happy wit it

 

Orange peel is the bumpy look on painted surfaced , also could have came out better if you would have removed the tails instead of masking bro , but then again I'm also not really into tinted tails on the 08-09 body style.

Rock the pink ones , if you want black get the Ralliart tails .

Just Imo though .

 

i did remove them for the tinting lol, but those both suck for me...until sum nice clean AF ones come out im stickin with these. or if changes em on future models, well see what they come out with

 

can you get the VHT stuff an like an autozone or something local like that? i may do it this weekend if so...lol

 

yea...the one i called didnt have it but they led me to a place that did...i also wrote up a DIY http://9glancers.com/index.php/topic,3414.msg40349.html

 

ok thanks man. sorry, im not on 9glancers lol but ill just follow the instructions....i've spray painted before haha

oh and also, how do you think they looked before you applied the clear coat? were they more of a flat black?

 

It looks good. However I'd still use the vinyl just because I want to pass inspection.
Oh and is that a black lancer or a gray one...

 

flat-ish...not super flat, still some reflective-ness...n rough to the touch...if u have trouble gettin the tails out...make an account on 9gL lol, i also posted in that thread about how to get em out. or pm me
