First Coat.

Wet sanded after 2nd coat,Ready for 3rd.

Final Product



I took the pics from them angles so you can see the area around the tag i filled along with the holes for the spoiler i filled, In Person depending on the angle from a few feet away you can notice the shape of where i filled in around the tag,(That Was Expected) I did not want to get to serious with it with building it up and blending it for a perfect match i know i can do it but i don't want to spend that much time let alone put that much **** on the car.

Just went threw my pics,Here is one that Realy Shows exactly what im talking about,You can tell, but its perfectly flush in the transition from the fiberglass piece to to the steal of the trunk so it still looks clean.



Hopefully it holds up ok for a little while,Until i can afford Real Paint.Final coat (4th) was not wet sanded,Paint used was Rustoleum Gloss Black.
I finally got a battery disconnect switch to put in the Key hole.I just have to get ahold of some extra Cable before i can install it.

It'd be tighter if u did a black out like old school bosses, like I did on mine. I used flatblack over red and it was tight,but gloss black and flat would be doper.

I like the smooth look. I dunno if I wanna take the time to do it, since my car is more track oriented, but I do like it!!!

I had a feeling based on the prep pics that you'd be able to see the outline around the part, looks pretty good though.
