Default My weekend project

This weekend I decided to paint my sideskirts and front grill back to black. Before, they were painted white by the previous owner with spray paint. So I headed on down to Kragens and picked up some DupliColor Trim Paint and went at it...

Before:



After:



Now all I need to do is paint the door handles... but that's for next weekend. The reason I decided to paint them is that I am getting the PasswordJDM Fiberglass lip on Monday.

Nah, I already painted the mirrors from white to black a few months ago. They didn't look too good... I want everything to be how it should be.
