heres a couple of pics of some paintwork me and my mate have just done.
this is the front bumper,splitter and rear bumper inserts off a 106 gti that we done.there was loads of cracks in the splitter where it had hit a speedbump and the bumper was full of stonechips and a few cracks.
here it is painted up and fitted.
this is my mates saxo vtr bodykit that he wanted resprayed in a vauxhall pearl colour.top half of his car is black.
we're in the middle of doing a smoothed & bad boy'd boot at the moment,ill get some pics of that up soon.
if you want any work done (except full resprays) then contact me through u2u or the details on the card in my avatar.
cheers

top work guys all of it looks fantastic!
Dont suppose u cud explain to me how u mix and get the laquer onto panels so well i.e so smooth.
I'm having trouble getting the right air pressure and side to side motion, im either to fast (not enough coverage), just right (perfect), or to much (runs)
Its well gay, but when i get it right its perfect, so if u dont mind spending a few mins typing out ur process that wud b mucho appreciated

thanks for the comments,
as far as spraying laquer,i use about 4 bar of pressure with a medium fan set on the gun. its best to dust the first coat on then the next wetter coat will have something to stick to, its something you have to learn really as you go along.i like the laquer to look wet all over the pannel so its like glass,then if you dont get a nice finish out of the gun its all down to flatting and polishing
