Duplicolor gloss black + SEM clear makes shiny mirrors and door frames.

Very clean. good job. Not crazy about the 3.2 decal though.

Looks good, tint would help if it's legal.

Thanks

Yup its underway , with a dyno run. The front sides are pretty much illegal (not really but you just add 10% and you're out of range) and the rear and rear sides , I can paint them , theres no restrictions on these , so Tints will be there soon

 

[warmonger]

not a fan of black mirrors unless the car is black,or you have tint. otherwise i like mines body color . you did a great job though.

How did you tape the rest of the car off? I'm trying to get a feel for how lazy I can be while doing this.

I removed the mirrors (Yes you need to remove the whole int door panel.) , for the pilars I only used green masking tape (less sticky) and paper to cover the area. Be very gentle with the spray...more thinner coats>thick coats

Funny...this is what I did Friday except I only use Semi-Flat.

 

[DDakRT]

That looks surprisingly good for only $12! Great job dude.

 

[droptSHO]

Looks great! I need to do the same. Mine looks horrible now that I have tint.

[Sho Amo]

plus tint will make it look even better. i did my mirrors but havent gotten around to doing the pillars yet. i prefer a flat black, they were that way from the factory.

 

[38SHO]

nice job, I like the headrests too!

 

[goalieman59]

do you think this could be done on car with the right taping off? or can someone give a hand with how to get the mirrors off?

 

[93rev2sev]

$12 + labor would be what...$400?

 

[goalieman59]

sounds about right, now we just need to figure out how to pay ourselves to do it.

You can tape it off , if you take the time to tape it really carefully , you will get good results.

HOW TO REMOVE THE MIRRORS:

all you need is a phillips screwdriver and a ratchet with 10mm socket.

Remove mirror cap plastic , one screw.

Remove 2 screws , one above the "thrash bin" of the door , one in the handle to CLOSE the door (not the one to open it) , Then pull the whole plastic piece towards you , it holds only with plastic push pins. Once done pull it towars top to unhook the door lock pin.

I let it hang by the wires but you can unhook them if you like.

Then remove speaker 4 screws. Disconnect the electric mirror connector down below IN the door (windows up). Remove 3 10mm nuts behind the mirror , you might have to tear a plastic thats in the way , if the plastic is already torn , it means someone already played there before you
