painted the tail panel

I did this a little bit ago but i figure i'll share, dont mind the mess in the car had to store the rims in there for the time being

Heres a pic with the tail panel off and ready to be sanded, the green tape was for the area that i wanted to keep blue



Heres the piece pretty much sanded down, still had alittle left to do around the letters and tail light area



Here's the piece after completed sanding and wiped down with prep wipes for paint...it was still wet from the prep wipes when i took the pic...


Here it is after primer (was sanded again after primer using finer grade sandpaper), prep wiped and waiting to dry for final coat of paint


after first coat of flat black paint....doesnt look much different then the primer lol


Back on the car after a few coats. dont mind what looks to be imperfections on the tail panel, it was the sun's reflection from the bumper and hatch.



I always like the look of camaro's this way. Not bad considering it was all done with dupli-color rattle can paint and primer.

Very nice job bro. what paint did you use as a final coal, or did you put a clear coat finish on it.

Your BLACKED OUT TAIL PANEL looks good, especially considering the materials you used. It complements the color of the car nicely.
