I've recently been up to no good with my car.. I've been taking the plastic parts of my car off and cleaning all the dirt and mud off and respraying them semi-gloss black.. People have admired them and I've gotten a few paint requests, so I thought I'd start a small thread


Specific parts I've already painted have been

Exhaust shrouds

Fender vents

Front fender liners (driver side only as of right now)

& the little plastic piece that goes over the corner of the front fender liners that has two push pins in it


Parts I plan on spraying in the upcoming future

Undertray

Engine bay covers. With my main cover, I plan on painting that 2-tone to match my car's color



I am not charging for this service. I saved over $210 from painting them rather than buying aftermarket and OEM replacement parts. I am NOT trying to take away business from those providers. I am just providing alternate methods of making your car look a little better at low cost for people who can't afford much, such as myself. I enjoy painting these, as the result product looks very nice. And again, I do not plan to charge for painting them, but if you want to pay for a can of spraypaint, by all means, be my guest. It's only $6 or so

I've attached pics of my work below



!!WARNING!!
I has decals on my car. Do not comment about how much you dislike them and that I should take them off. I will take them off in due time. They are just temporary, covering the bullet holes in my bumper.

Comparison of fresh paint and old plastic



Fender Vents (I believe they are both painted.. the one on my car doesnt look faded, I forget)



And a better shot of the shrouds, and everything else

 

looks really nice

 

thank you very much! I forgot to add that I don't paint body panels.. My fender is off because I was going to push my dent out
