Comes out to a mirror finish without clear coat...absolutely not ghetto.

On the Mopar board, the guy with the Charger said the car got scraped but since there's no clear, you can just wetsand it and polish again and it's gone.

honestly i have a few questions about this... is the paint flexible? any other paint would start chipping off bumpers after a while... unless there is some kind of flex agent? or for this price are u willing to just keep recoating the parts as the paint cracks?

ok guys yea thats my white ek...seriously its not the greatest paintjob in the world but hey u definately cant beat 50 bucks...looks freakin great for a daily driver...i do still have a bit of orange peel...too lazy to wetsand again..but people who have seen it still dont believe that i really did it with a paintroller...and as far as the picture goes..i have bigger versions its just when my brother put them online he reseized them way too small..the camera actually used is a 8 mp camera..
