theres another but the good pix arent showing up..says the file size is too big
WOW, a garbage car..now those are SOME awesome interior mods...LOL
(maybe take the garbage, the 60 lighters, and the used kleenex out before taking more pics :roll: )
Did you use a high temp paint to do that?
Good one... Make fun of the trash....... i know i need to take my car to the car wash, what about you?Quote:

While the trash might be a bit of overkill in the pics, the paintwork looks good.
Bird, are they LEGAL??? if not, I would offer them a ride to the border, or the nearest INS office :!:
I wouldn't say you ALWAYS pay attention to detail because you OBVIOUSLY didn't in those pics..LOL Maybe you were just so excited to show everyone you overlooked the stuff :?:
man, who gives a **** about trash and washing your(in general) car...........looks good btw.
OK OK OK...I was a bit harsh, but I'm not going to go through the Don Imus apology..LOL
Not to get off the O.P. but Howerd Stern has said way worse things then Imus and got away with it every time.Quote:

Looks clean. What did you have to do to prep? Im too lazy for stuff like that, i'll just hand 'em to whiteraven, he's got all the talent i need.

ne way...i prepped it by simply sanding it with a ligh sand paper...cleaned it off...primed it twice...shot it with red fusion twice...clear coat...done...i wish i could get my other pix up...u could check out my myspace they are on there
and come on man ur name is fabricator...u can do it urself!

Ron is a guy that takes care and pride in all of his vehicles. If I was going to show off something I did, I'd make sure it was a good picture without a bunch of garbage in my car.
Wait...I see the pics now...you wanted us to see the color red you used because it's the same at the McDonald's bags.
I am very sorry I said it was garbage, it was there for reference.
shapinoweno would like you're pic's cuz you have both Mc Donnalds and Burger King bags........................... (Note to self: Clean Car before taking pic's and posting them on this site)
I've been driving my free Honda around and my lady doesn't keep the Aveo that clean. Takes 3 hours to do a good job (wax, Wet Shine every piece of rubber, etc).
Anyway... the paint looks a bit sloppy from the pics. If anything I would get a sheet of brushed aluminum and make real accents (or the eBay fuax kit). To each his own!
Did you use clear coat? If not you'll hate life. Also it'll fade and chip if you used cheap paint. Theres specialty paint for plastics and a high heat durable clear coat that'll do the job right.
Yeah when I painted my interior pieces i used a plastic/vinyl die/paint.
So if/when I paint the motor cover and other plastic bit undeer the hood, I should clear coat them also? Even if I use a ceramic paint?
I never thought about it, but it does set things off a bit.
Its hard for me to find the high heat clear coat, so I have never used it on engine parts. the only other thing i painted were worn rims on my buddies Neon, but that had a special clear coat.
how did you take off the cap holders to paint them?Quote:

I have a spare plastic piece that goes around the clock. I was going to use it for an armrest project, but if you need one, send me yours and I'll trade for my unpainted one.
Also, who would be interested in having their plastics either color-chromed (color matching chrome plating), chromes, or carbon fiber/silver carbon overlayed?? I ask because I have access to these finishes if you are interested.
how did i get my caps off?? i dont understand what pieces ur talking about...and i got my pedals form apc...they are out of business now but they did have blue...sorry man ill gladly answer ne questions jes point to what ur talking about
