Satin paint comes out surprisingly good. It doesn't show all the imperfections in the spray pattern like a flat would, yet it isn't hard to do because it isn't shiny.

Of course it isn't show quality...

You should respray your windshield wipers black. Mine were all faded like yours and once i painted them black again it looked 10x better.

Re: (EF288Gsr)

Love the simplicity of the car and the paint color. I think it would look badass with some red/black rims and red pinstriping on the door/bumper moldings. Stickers
