I'm super bummed I didn't save some money and paint the Evo-R lip myself like you did your Ings. Where did you get the MB/clear paint from?
hey, I picked up my paint and clear at an auto body supply shop (maslack). I gave them my vehicle color code and they made/mixed a can (total like 50$ for everything). Painting the base coat was easy, I struggled with the clear a bit, but in the end I had like 4 coats so I was able to wet sand it all even and smooth and buff it to a shine.
What are your plans for the ings rep? have you considered painting it, for 50$ its an affordable project...?
