I recently got some front and rear splitters for my GT4, I managed to source these from an auction website for $140 NZ, so I am very happy with the price

Anyway I want to try spraypainting these myself over Christmas, currently they are painted in a gray gelcoat. This will be my first time painting fibreglass, does anyone have any general tips? for example how many coats should I apply, what grit sandpaper I should use to prep it, and what would be the best paint and clearcoat to use. (My GT4 is white.) Any help would be much appreciated.

Not too sure about diy painting. I know it doesn't cost much to get it painted properly at the shops smile.gif
