Sand, spray. admire

I didnt prep as much as I should have. I'll probably re-do it later. (when its warner outside)

Is that the dupli-color paint you can get at autozone?

yeah, i think it was plasticote, or whatever that other brand name is. got it from Advance. 4 bux for the 'primer' type stuff, and 4 for the color. not too shabby. wish I would have taken my time. I'll do it better next time.

They don't have a gunmetal color do they?...

I want to do my Audi rings in a metalic gunmetal color when I have my custom grille painted, but they only way I have been able to find to do it is actual anodizing, which is cost prohibitive.
