Don't mind the bumper guys, the body shop messed up with the prep work painting it. It should be getting fixed very soon. Thanks for looking!!

Nice! They look good man.

Yeah, I'd say the body shop messed up, ha. Looks like they just painted over the plastic. No primer or nothing, lol.

 

[Southern Stang]

Thanks Kristopher. Your right, there is no primer or anything. They just sprayed over the smooth plastic.

Awesome jobs. Too bad the Impala already has some crazing in the lens, likely from neglect on the previous owner's part.

Nice work! Those Impala headlights were awful.

Awesome job! I think I'll try to do this for some people this summer when I get back into detailing; awesome results and not too entirely difficult!

As for the body shop, I'd find a new one!! Ha.
