GJ!

Haha. I may do that later on tho. I want to pick up the new EVO-R CF lip when it finally comes out... so that in combination with the CF diffuser would look sick. We'll see.

I got the paint at Sherwan Williams. But you have to go to their automotive store, not the regular paint store.

Looks real good. You might think about getting some flat clearcoat to help the life of the paint.

I dont think its needed actually. The paint already has a sheen to it, plus its made specifically for these kinds of exterior projects. It's very smooth and feels just like plastic, so I dont know if paint on top of it would even adhere very well. I'm gonna leave it as is and see how it goes.

I found this paint all over the web. Did you buy it local or order?
Yours looks so good that I think I'm gonna do it.

jep! that's my plan too (for the front that is)... after someone tries the fitment. they make pretty CF, but reminds you quickly that it is made in taiwan when you try fitting it onto the car.

Yeah, I hear ya. I hope the fitment is good on these lips tho, because I've seen a bunch of bad reviews for the EVO-R rear diffuser. But we'll see what happens.
