Heres a little bit of my jobs ive done. Wish i had a better camera but it gets the point across.

All tails are sanded and buffed witha better than factory finish. They are also sprayed with PPG Adhession Promoter, PPG Deltron 2000 Bascoat, and PPG DC3000 Clear.

I did them the other day they turned out pretty good. I did the third brake light first to get the hang of it. It turned out a little darker then I wanted but I think it looks good. I also painted my mirrors and took of the trim.

Here's some pics
