painted my wheels

I just took the spoiler off, it leaves about 6 holes on the hatch I think. I had to mount the 3rd brakelight on the inside of the hatch also.

those instructions are great, but the paint he used isnt, i tried that paint once and it doestn hold as well as Gloss engine Enamel. All the other times ive painted wheels.. ive used the enamel, it sticks alot better, and it doesnt come off as easy. The engine enamel has alot of colors to choose from. i tried that wheel paint since that it was for.. but it chipped, after 3 weeks. And the enamel i used on my pro never chipped..ever.

interesting... coz I have the same chipping problem. I gotta use the engine enamel now, but does it come in flat colors?
