Was the emblem suppose to match the paint color of the car? Doesnt look glossy or smooth (according to last pic)
The first pic that shows the emblem on the back looks dark. Thanks for posting pics. Gives me an idea on whether or not I want to leave the chrome emblem look or black.
its probably a lighting issue on why its so dark and theres a little dirt all over the car its windy at my house so dirt is flying around like crazy I only put like 4 coats of clear coat also my sister said that it would of came out nicer if I used an air brush for the clear coat than using acrylic spray or something she is an artist so i didnt argue

I too am an artist and the only airbrush that would of been useful is the one they use to paint cars with. you can use an airbrush that artists use. It wont cover as much and it wont put down enough clear coat. I dont even think it would work on a normal airbrush.
Spray can is alot better as you'll cover more area and it applies a thicker coat.
i duno :p thats what she said im no artist im just a lowly computer dude :-) i make art with a simple keystroke :-) as opposed to using a brush :p i also sanded the chrome off maybe dont sand it just put a few layers or primer or something down so it sticks really well? i duno i put 1 layer of primer/3layers of black paint/4layers of clear coat got lazy to do more coats of black/clear and it was getting dark and dirt kept getting on it damn dirt!!!
Unrelated question: Is it just illusion or are the exhaust tips not aligned with the bumper cutouts? Looks like the tips are almost touching the inside of the cutouts
yeah me too (after those pics)actually I wanted to do the same( same car color like yours) but now I see its not going with this color.
but if you like it than good for ya.
