like i said, make sure the paint you use is a little bit flexible and don't rush it makin it dry. The faster it drys, the less flexible it is.

The how-to that I wrote is ONLY to be used for painting hard plastice pieces, NOT vinyl (door panels/dash, etc).

Also, don't use solvent based cleaners to clean the painted pieces once they are done... also Armorall, etc will rub the paint off... 90civicrider says that he uses something called "spray nine" that works perfectly... hit him up for more details.

i went back to stock for now, i am still missing a passenger side door panel but other than that its stock again...I am gonna do up the exterior first then figure out the interior, white was blinding during the summer but I will probably do it again

Im just waiting till schools over then I will work ft and pour $$$$ into my car...I am almost certain to be kitted and turboed by the end of summer heh

where ever you paint it should be warm otherwise it will not stick and it will crack. Warm it up somehow
