New project

vastang757 · November 20th, 2009, 07:57 PM

Painting my boom tubes. Got tired of seeing the extra carbon build up cause of the O/R X.

Pics:
Sanded w/ 220

Sanded w/ 800

First coat of paint

After 3 coats of paint and 2 coats or clear(still in the process of drying)

I'll post finished pics in the morning. Still need to wet sand w/ 2000

nice work so far

You seem to be on a binge man, perhaps you could save yourself some time/money and just spray paint your whole stang black. Stop this piecemeal shit and just do it all at once. I'll even come help, I'll bring beer, it'll turn out awesome.

If it makes you happy, it's not for me.

06VistaGT · November 21st, 2009, 10:31 AM

HBK_2007 · November 21st, 2009, 02:06 PM

i wanna see this, im considering this with my black 09

cale2006 · November 21st, 2009, 05:58 PM

I think I see a run......j/k good work though. This would look good a black car too, with black rims and a black windshield

stanglifemike · November 21st, 2009, 09:43 PM

Gotta see it installed man. Dont know how I feel about it at this point. May look cool though...

06z28eaTer · November 21st, 2009, 10:01 PM

looks great man

vastang757 · November 22nd, 2009, 01:02 AM

Final product:

I don't love it, but I can deal. Beats the hell out of seeing the small rust spots that were there.

wraitherx · November 22nd, 2009, 01:32 AM

doesnt look too bad

vastang757 · November 22nd, 2009, 01:39 AM

Yeah it could be worse. I don't hate it, but I don't love it either. I love my emblems though

They turnedout good, real original too. Where did you get that rocker decal?

06Black5spdGT · November 22nd, 2009, 10:17 PM

What's with your taillights? Did you sand them or something?

Scott2001GT · November 23rd, 2009, 12:18 AM

did mine earlier this summer. I love it! no more cleaning chrome made dirty by o/r pipe

RetroGT2006 · November 23rd, 2009, 02:52 AM

Looks great, hell i did this to my Borla/FRPP Stingers.. I painted them, i did not clear coat it yet because i want to do a few more coats and i have not put it on the car yet.

Putting clear coat won't burn off when it gets hot?? I thought for some reason it would cause a problem. Let me know, because my LT's and O/R X are on the way and i want to be able to put everything on once its here.
