Painting Projects Finished.
Painted all my plastic(excluding front bumper because it will soon be replaced with an ARB front bumper,and the antenna cover because I somehow forgot about it during the process.) Painted my brake calipers red and the center hubs black because they had some bad looking rust places on them. Also plastidipped the gas cap cover. All the plastic trim was pretty easy to do just was so time consuming to tape everything off. First time doing any major body paint work so a better body or masking person could probably have done it in half the time with half the tape. Took about 4.5 hours to tape and mask with two people working then about 3 hours to paint. Took 2 cans of duplicolor black plastic trim paint(3 coats on each piece), 2 cans of duplicolor clear coat(also 3 coats on each). The metal part of the bumper it actually plasti-dipped and then clear coated. Tell me what you guys think. Took about 50$ vs about 300$ for Line-x plus I would have to have taken all the plastic off.

Yeah it was fading terribly. Someone gave me some stuff(armorillo) that is supposed to restore it but I didn't feel like having to do it every year. It is so shiny it's hard to get good pics of. The rockers look like wet paint it's awesome.
