Which would be a better "Sleeper?"

[b16rex]

My car right now has a huge ass key mark down both sides of it and the paint is faded. My funds are limited right now and i'm getting a b16 in it in a couple weeks. Do you think i should just sand it down and primer it or keep it keyed with the faded paint?

spray paint it pink and build a wing out of wood

around here man its like people do this to their car and they get a muffler and their like im a sleeper and im like no your a dumbass.....im not trying to insult anyone just saying

oh yea, thats shitty that ur place is like that
i think i'm the only primer car out here

and i KNOW i'm NOT a sleeper.... i know its a fun toy however

[civicHBsi91]

it was cool for awhile.......then seriously half the cars around had primer somewhere or were totally primered and it just turned to rice here...

I think i'm gonna go with the primer, no one here is primered except a couple slow ass stangs

get some PPG primer sealer i think its like $100 to get the paint to do a whole car its kinda a satin look but thick as hell
they have black,gray and blue, im not sure on the other colors but it looks better than a rattle can job

There was a primered Del Sol around here that some people laughed at until they seen it run mid 13's.

Im kind of in the same position, but its rust, and ive never done this before...

i was wondering. Should i just sand down the surface rust and when i primer it, only primer the spots? OR should i sand down and primer the entire fender to keep it all monotone...not mostly gloss finish with primer spots.

yes, ive seen PICS of many cars completely primered or whatever, but i have no fear of having my car completely primered. I think it looks good. I have never EVER seen a primered car around here.

Dont let others define what you do. Just do it for yourself and youre ok.

if money is THAT tight buy an airless sprayer and a bucket of white auto paint and hardner, it'll look way better an cost minimal, plus white is way cooler in traffic than primer

[blacksheep]

hey just primer soaks up water and rusts away so if your gonna primer it put some type of sealer over it

here's true sleeper style, sand down the section around the scratch and primer that section only... ghetto-fabulous
