Default FRC Weekend Project...

(hope this is the right area to post this project in)
Well I decided to tackle painting my FRC's this weekend after extensive searching on this forum lol. I've never wet sanded and buffed before but I feel they turned out not too bad. Still searching for best place to get the Corvette Stripe Kit for the covers though so those are to come..

I would just use a rubber roller and paint for the raised stripes.
