No-one could beat me with a rattle can dude, period!

Oh and by the way, this was just me practising as I was bored, this bonnet is going back to its original colour.

Not a bad effort that Ste specially for Aerosol, did you need to do loads of prep and buffing etc to bring the finish up, normally they come out looking uneven and patchy - Only down side is try finding a aersol colour to match a standard gallardo or Enzo red and imagine tring to get a finsh across a whole car and how much paint / time it would take frown

I didn't really prep it properly mate, quick spray with primer and whacked the paint on, it's really easy once the several layers of paint are on but time consuming.

If its patchy it's because the paint hasn't been rubbed down correctly or with the correct grades of paper.

Buffing and then polishing is the final job.

As I say, easy but time consuming. This bonnet took about 2 days.

smile

Oh, also I don't think anyone with common seance would spray a Lamborghini or Ferrari with rattle cans wink

Also the porsche 944 wouldn't stand a chance against an integrale.

Good Stuff ste, thought so,

I'm glad you said that about the commonsense, with some people i've met through various contacts it wouln't suprise me bud.

Defo worth the effort on the bimmer though, more cost effective option aswell if not got loads of money to play with, and lets face it not many have in this climate

Also agreed 944 was always a bit of a let down in its day as was the 928 if its not a 911 or variation 997 etc it's not a porsche in my mind,

Curious why you say a 928 was a let down in its day yet praise the 911s, during its life the 928 was better in all aspects from almost all of the 911s.

944 was purposely made a let down by Porsche of course.
