You didn't even mask off your tires! That looks terrible!

You should have at least line the lip of your rims with note cards to prevent overspray. It just looks cheap when your tires are just as glossy as your wheels.

I didn't notice it until the above pointed it out...but I'm sure you can get the paint off the tire with some real abrasive cleaner...otherwise, I like the painted spoiler.

Maybe the rims need some clear as well? They look just a little unfinished.

Nice job.

im not worrried about the paint on the tires because in a couple of days the paint on the tires just peel right off...so its not a problem to me

thanks....the paint was free from my friend...he gave me the rest of his paint since he had extra....and i borrowed the gun from my grandpa....the paint was a single stage black with wet gloss.....

Good thing you used real paint. You got real paint on the tires too. The black rims and black spoiler looks pretty bad. Might as well put steelies on there it'll look exactly the same. Paint the lip red or something so you get some kind of contrast.

You def. should have taken the time to remove the tire first...or at least mask it off. Paint does not just "peel" off all that easily.

actually some of that paint won't come off just by peeling, you might have to work it a lot harder to remove. But other than that, keep the opinions conservative guys, he is learning much.

LOL - I give the front tires like maybe 3 months before they need to be replaced due to all the extra power and that fun period just after turboing your car.
Screw the haters man - I dig it. The Spoiler looks great too
