Heres the prep and masking off
I know the work seems sloppy but it was done very carefully lol

Then we go with the 1st coat


Waited a little bit then went with the 2d Coat


Waited a little bit more and applied the last spray


Then i let it dry and later took off theprotection to see the finished product


One more picture ill take another in the morning since so itll be easier to see



Tell me what you think!

not trying to be a smarta$$ or anything, but why didn't you just take the grill off to paint that? IMO it'd have been much easier to just mask the pony than cover the rest of the car to protect from overspray. I'm not sure how hard the grill is to remove, it may be more of a pain than it's worth.

A couple of tee shirts and some paper towels wasen't that much work andit took me about20 min to mask the grill off which I would have had todo either way but itwent by fast and the spraying was quick too no hassles here.

Cool, that definitely adds to the stealth look, but for sure gotta see some pictures when it's light out tomorrow.
