I am planning on getting a clearbra anyway, so I figured I can do without the clearcoat. In the end it looked fine, only problem were the lines on the left and right of the fangs, they were not straight! I really did my best neatly taping, but just like Zeto, not good enough. But I solved the problem today, I bought a set of fine brushes and sort of pin striped the ends, it turned out quite nice. I took before and after pictures, which I'll post tomorrow. So Zeto, I'd say try the pinstripe trick, it worked for me.
I'll do my rear bumper (the part around the tailpipes) this weekend, but instead of painting, I'll use vinyl, I ordered the vinyl overlay from Bluebat (vendor on this forum).

Thanks for the advice! I rep'ed you up! What kind of paint did you use for the pinstripe? Do you have the link for the vinyl vendor?
