Default Painted the blades, sides, and got a new exhuast...

Well i decided to paint the blades again, i like this much better than the black so they are staying this color...I also painted the sideskirts and got an RS-R exmag to go with my apex-i piping

Let me know what you think of the pics!









Me and my friends jeep

I like the 4x4, nice Jeep too. Nah, you know me bro, nice, looking teg. I like the blades like that better than the black. Also how did you paint your side skirts? I want to do this too, a nice cheapy lil mod that makes a difference Maybe you have a link with a DIY or something. I have a 4x4 as well man, except yours looks better.

I went to advanced auto parts and bought 4 cans of Milano Red Paint in spray bottles, the paint is made by duplicolor. I also got 1 can of a light colored primer and one can of clearcoat. I cleaned them a lot, then sanded them to smooth out the imperfections...then i sprayed on the primer until they were completely covered. Then I sprayed 3 or 4 LIGHT LIGHT coats of paint so that there were no runs. After that i sprayed 4 coats of clear-coat on...pretty heavily (I used the whole bottle). After that its all good
