Finally finished it. For some reason it still looks like the gray is darker than my paint by about a shade even though it's factory color matched from the stealership. It's staying regardless...I'm not re-doing it again. The back shield was done in a metallic black to replace the flat plastic looking black it was originally. I'll start on the back some time this week hopefully.

Damn that looks good. I'm assuming it was chrome before?

Plastic never will color the same as metal. Still looks good.

What did you use for base coat (adhesion Promoter?) or just lots of light coats to start with the OEM match.

No kidding. It's still a little frustrating that this doesn't match completely either.

Hmmm ... don't think it would have the same appeal in Go ManGo! Maybe someone should chop it for us in different body colors.

Looks good in the photos, though. Great job!
