Message If your going to keep car you might want to do some of the things I did
1.remove door handles from door, paint them separately, it looks better than tape lines and over spray on your door handles.
I even took out the locks from door handles.
2. remove mouldings from windshield, t tops and mouldings from quarter windows and doors. I didn't remove any windows of my car, I thought that it would be way over kill
3. remove hood and bumpers paint seprately.
4.remove trunk spoiler
5. paint car on jack stands or ramps. it sits so low it's hard to spray underneath evenly without doing this.
6.I didn't remove my doors when i painted I regret not doing it.But it's not the end of the world if you don't either.
7. take the time to take off any extra stuff that will allow a cleaner finished look. I took out my brake lights turn lights and center panel as well.
8. paint the inner fender lip on engine side as well as core support. this will make your car stand out from the other paint jobs out there. then later when doing an engine pull paint your engine bay. it's been 2 years since my paint job still haven't gotten to do engine bay yet.
9. there is a bunch more stuff email me and I'll send you some pics or try to get back to you to awnser some questions good luck datsundesmond@yahoo.com
