Paintjob time Options

[NaderG]

i am keeping it black , so i dont think they will paint the door jams and underhood or trunk .... BEST thing is that my dad decided to chip in so i am planning on lowering the car once i get back

i already ordered my tricircle emblem and will buy a TRD emblem from Ebay
i am just wondering if 3m double sided tape is enough to stick the old emblems and nameplates back to the car?


ADD: where do i get SSIII spliters replicas from ??

i didnt strip and primer it .... he just said he will sand it down , but unlike other volume people , he will take his time doing so .... stripping and priming the car will probably cost you a bit more ..... also , the 900$ include a volume discount that i got through my dad's friend.... but even without it , that shop does good work for a good price

Getting my car back tomorrow !! i wanted to go see the work in progress but i was too busy , i still have an unanswered question : what should i use to put the emblems back on ???

[NaderG]

Anybody ?? what should i use for those emblems ?? like a double sided 3M tape ? anything better ?? help !

double sided 3m tape works perfectly. But dont put them back on right away..let the paint set for about a week untill its fully set and hardened. I use 3m tape for all the logos i put on my car over the last while. It works fine and its hard to pull them off too.

Thanks , i got the car back and it looks pretty good .... minor things wrong here and there but overall , this is a bargain for 900$ , i will post pics ASAP

[NaderG]

i guess pics wont do any good now .... i am such an idiot , i got yelled at by my dad and i got really mad ... i was supposed to take his car out of the garage and put mine in , anyways , i was angry and as i was putting my car in , i scratched it ...... amazing ..... the car only looked good for a week .... i dont know what to do now really
