Painted my splash guards
Well I got done painting the chrome grill and had paint left over so I decided to paint my splash guards carbon flash
I tried two ways sanding the plastic smooth and just giving them 2 heavy coats of primer. I found just a light scuff and 2 coats of primer gave the smoothest finish. I still need to buff them out for the glass finish but I'll do that next weekend.
Sorry no pics of the whole car, I'll get one tomorrow
