Default New pics! of my yella project. that i did with a spray can!

I'm sure some of you guys remembered the thread I've made for my project here.

https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1903849

i haven't updated with painting in that thread but i got everything done before i even know it. but on with the pictures!



does anybody got me that molding piece that goes on the driver side fender that they want to sell me ?










man rocking one seat is the coolest thing ever!


i think overall it looks great and just need to buff it. or is there any kind of compound to make it really shine or something ?

wetsand with 1500 then 2000grit, then wax, but wait like 2 weeks before you do it, let the paint cure/settle.

yes but make sure you don't stay to long on one spot and on the corners. You will for sure burn the paint if you do. Evenly all the way across the car.
Also depends on how many layers you did too

but that thing looks real good
