People with C-One Wing Tips

[TRDYUS]

jeremy mate if your not a DIY guy then just keep shopping around for a cheaper price. but i would definately tell you to give it a go yourself. although the painting i would get someone proffesional to do it. give it a go. dont rush yourself. i have never done wing tips but i would imaine it wouldnt be that hard. it is alot of fun to see the progress you make everyday. this will also give you the oppurtunity to bond closer with the car. haha

Sounds like Dr. Sinan is in the building.

I'd say give it a go but it's not expensive at all to get it moulded and painted.

Yeah dude, it's better than any other place I've asked.

You dont need to polish or wax, after its painted then it's totally upto you.

Clear coat. Just keep putting coats of it on until you're happy with it.

Sorry for the late reply dude.

You don't need clear coat? Weird. Doesn't hurt to put it on. If I was ever going to have my entire car resprayed, I'd be getting more clear coats put on it, as it brings out the paint more and makes it look creamy.

[bonbon]

just cut and polish it like your watching a paris hilton movie and itll go shiney
