Today I went to meet with BozzTL-S and by his A C U R A letters> he is very nice and stuff. After I drove home. I say what the heck let me stop at home depot and by a black spray pant. I got the pant for 6 dollars. Go home and do it. It only took me 5 minutes to paint it. Now the pipe you can't see the rusted and white anymore in a far distance. Cheap easy mod to do.

Holy crap calvin, forget the 6 bucks for spray paint, invest some of your money in HOOKED ON PHONICS books.

hey calvin,
i've been thinking about doing that as well. did you have to wash and/or prime it first before you painted it? if not, do you think it will peel off? i was thinking about doing it in silver. what do the rest of you guys think would look better? my car is laguna green (grey ) and i have silver wheels.
thanks,
peter.

i used the towel and clean the place i want to pant it. then wait for it to dry then spray it on. if it peel i will pain again.

Real easy to do, I used one of those wire brushes to get any salt/crap build up rubbed off, cleaned off/let dry and sprayed on.

edit: Just make sure you mask off really well, you don't want any overspray getting on ur wheels

peter.

No, ick. Unless you want to take off you exhaust to make sure you actually get the paint right and then cover it in a million coats so it doesnt chip from rocks. The whole reason everyone goes black it so it's invisible and it's never noticed.

 

[Petrie2001]

i see. that makes sense. i think i'm going to paint it black then.

peter.

Yah, I would. I did w/ mine. I think it would match better than black.
