Re: Color

Ok i just got it back from getting it painted and they did a good job on all of the little dings and stuff, but they painted over the fog light covers and all of that stuff.
I cant deside if i like it all one color or not i was think what my options would b and this is what i could come up with.

1) buy new fog light covers and the things next to them.
2)leave it like it is
3)Buy a full set of thies to put in thierhttp://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Mitsubishi-Eclipse-Side-Vent-Grille-97-98-99-grill_W0QQitemZ370039509108QQcmdZViewItem?hash=ite m370039509108.
4) acctually but fog lights and stuff and install thos.

Also i should mention that i am getting the windows tinited with 20% in a few says so i was thinking that might help to even out the color problum.

Give me some opions please
-Thanks Yajin.


More pics of the paint job:

Re: Color

Well the car looks good as far as I can tell, but I cant beleive that they painted all the plastic trim pieces and radiator ducting in the front bumper, that looks straight shitty. I can tolerate the fog light surrounds being red and also the black bar thingy in the middle of the bumper being red. But I'd have to paint the radiator ducting back black. And the vent block offs beside the foglights....I'd just take those out and throw them away, I just hope it doesn't mess up the paint.

Re: Color

The best thing to do would be to take the bumper off and do it. But if not, you could just mask off the parts you want to stay red, then spray the inside black.

Re: Color

I would paint it back black. There is just to much red on the front end. Car looks sick though.

Re: Color

Holy shit that was fast. So the paint looks awesome, don't know about the covers under in the front bumper though. I would take the bumper off and just spray flat black on the parts. Don't mess with your fog light covers cause I'm pretty sure they will chip the paint.

Yeah i wunna take off the frount bumber and repaint it black but that require me using the garage for a few days and i dunno how that would go over with the parents. and i replaced the stock bumper b/c it was in bad condish with that after market one and all the other pieces on the frount and the only way i got it off the first time was like ripping it and i couldnt do that this time. anyone got any segestions on what paint to use? and the reson i didnt do the miors was b/c i didnt do the handels so it was ither both or nothing.

And i am not going to loose sleep over the unpainted mirors and handels b/c i am saving my money right now and i am going to sell this in less than a year and use my saved money and the money i get for selling this and buy a 99 GSX (if i can find one )
