hey all, as most of ya know, i have been working at the local maaco, and have been painting there for the past year or so, well, that has come to an end, but that dont mean i've stopped painting!
it was fun while it lasted, and i got what i wanted out of the job: i LEARNED. ![]() last night, i preped up and painted jims gt-4 hood and parts for his car, and painted them in my garage. here are a couple pics i snapped this morning after they were dry. ![]() ![]() ![]() these last 2 are reflection shots. this is before wetsanding and buffing, since the parts were just painted last night. ill post more when they are done and on the car. ![]() ![]() later today i will paint the gt-4 bumper and the forgmann lip. more pics to come! -------------------- Former Team 5SFTE pro member ;)

so the bonnet wing and the rear facing vent bits you were painting in the second pic on the first page are metal on yours? obviously mine is a Group A Rallye, which is the aus version with all of the go fast best goodies they made for 205's, would be interesting how yours are metal and mine arnt.
like i said mine is still under the same paint it left toyota with all those years ago. But yeah it does sound like prep or a reaction thing. -------------------- ST205 Group A Rallye GT-Four, #61 of 77............600hp GT3582r

But yeah it does sound like prep or a reaction thing. well, not mine, jims, but yes, they are metal, which i too found odd, ive never seen metal ones before, dustin jeff and i all have composite ones IIRC. can you snap a couple pics of the vents and capture the defects? a couple pics after a couple hrs of drying yesterday: ![]() ![]() ![]() -------------------- Former Team 5SFTE pro member ;)
