Sounds like you are really putting the effort in. I just watched a car go through wetsanding and buffing, it is a lot of work! Props and can't wait to see the finished rolljob!

So i started to polish the car by hand, 1/3 done with the hood and i was more tired than sanding. I noticed it would take forever, so i went to harbor freight and bought a 15 dollar polisher. Best thing i did,wish i wouldve bought it before i even began sanding. I finished polishing both sides of the car. I still need to do the hood,gfx,edges,front and rear bumpers. Here is a picture so far. Im happy with the reflection it has, not to bad. It took me today about 4-5 hours,and that was with the polisher. Tomorrow i should be finished with the rest. Ill have pics of the finished product tomorrow. After the paint im not sure of what to do next. I have the tints. Maybe that will be next. This should be easier since ive done tinits before. Anybody have any ideas of what i should work on next besides the motor?

Very nice job! Even more impressive that it was done with a roller.
|
Wow!!!!!
|
Man, your hard work really paid off! That looks great.
|
Thanks guys... Today I tried installing the pre cut tints that i bought of ebay. I messed up the first one. The tint got stuck together :oops: . Now i know how to go about it if i was to do the other one,but id rather pay a pro at this moment than order another set of ebay.

Very nice paint job. Where in North Jersey are you? I would love to see it in person (if it's good you can spray my fenders/bumpers/headlight covers on my car and make some cash if you'd be interested).

Holy crap! Those are incredible results for a roller job. Nice return on the effort you put in. Any chance you can pull that dent out? You've done so much work, it would be worth it to fix that.

i know,,but ive never tried taking out a dent of a car.. It would probably be easier if i just bought a new fender and painted it. Thats the only reason i havent ordered the stripes for it, since the bumper is dented |
Pick up a used fender for cheap and paint it up. Your paint job came out way to nice to still have a dent in the fender

I need some quick opinions guys. Dont want to regret the color of the sticker i put on. Either these which were the stock ones the car came with(SILVER),,,,,,or should i get them in GOLD? I do plan at one point buying some gold gta rims..
