ZR paint in a rattle can.....

[Duncan]

So my pass side scoop flew off on the tollway coming to work one day;

This is what the old ones looked like (which i never really cared for to begin with);

So I bought new ones;

I am too poor to have someone who knows how to paint do this for me, so I looked to the internetz for a cheaper way and found a site that can make the factory color, all I needed to do was give them the paint code and they sent me ZR paint and clear in rattle can form;

and it didnt turn out too bad, its a little lighter than the rest of the car but i expected that being the paint on the car is over 10 years old;

Ok, noob question, how did you pull the old ones off, and where did you order the new ones from (link would be awesome)

Thanks.

BTW it looks good bud.

That's actually pretty cool, doesn't look half bad. What site did you get the paint from?

one the driver side very carefully and slowly (I used a long screw driver looking push pin removal tool and a rag so i didnt scratch the paint on the car, the ones on my car were only held on by push pins), the pass side blew off on the tollway so I spent almost no time at all on that one.

You must have been hauling ass for it to fly off, LOL

ha, no...i had just gotten on (maybe 60mph) and i hear a thump so i look in the rear view to see the damn thing nearly go thru the windshield of the car behind me. It would have done some damage too, cause the one I took off felt like it weighed a good coulpe of pounds. The new ones are much lighter!

besides, no one would believe a 2v could accomplish such a feat as to rip body parts off due to speed. I wil try that story and let you know how many people laugh.

its good, still just a blown 2v though. I did convert it to E85 at the beginning of the year. You still in school?
