Default Painted my side skirts

Here's some pictures. It's a little hard to tell from the after shots cause the lighting isn't so good but in person it looks good.

Thank you! I didn't paint only the very bottom that runs uder the car. You can't see them anyway and it a waste of paint.

Damn it!! I cant wait for my sol to look nice again. It looks exactly the same with the aux lights, the si wheels, but in black :thumbup: ... my friends husband will repaint her if I pay for the paint and buy him another tattoo. He does great work from what I've heard and seen in a pic of her Eclipse. I can't wait.

Thanks for all the compliments guys . I didn't use a clear cote but I might redo them cause they don't have the depth and clarity that I want.
