Nice work dude.
Any pro tips on painting the gt4 front bumper? Mine is starting to flake and chip, badly. Im going to go back to the shop and see if they will warranty it. It looks like they didn't put any flexing agent (or whatever the stuff is called) into the paint. -------------------- 15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned

It looks like they didn't put any flexing agent (or whatever the stuff is called) into the paint. it really just depends on what they use art. the stuff we use is sherwinwilliams, ultra 7000 line ( theyre higher end stuff) and the reducer actually has a flex agent right in it. the thing is, with the way toyota preps theyre bumpers, they have no primer or anything on them. they just need to be scuffed well with a grey scuff pad, and most importantly sprayed with a adhesion promotor before any paint gets put on it. -------------------- Former Team 5SFTE pro member ;)
