Finally painted the mirror covers and trunk plynth.
These are night pics because I didn't get home until later and I forgot to bring my Camera.

Looks sweet.
Am I the only one that thinks Nite-shaded grilles look awesome on just about any colour car? :D
I parked next to a red ZTS stocker at work on Friday (our Financials Manager's car) and really liked how "stealthed" the grille looks compared to stock.

Actually.. I have other plans for the grill lights. I'm planing to get a grill that has no lights and relocate the signals. Still not sure if I'm getting headlight with integrated signals or use the foglight housing as my new signals.

I don't know, I used to watch "Bumperstumpers" a lot and think "JAS 4 RE" sounds more like "jaspher" than what you propose? :D

You should have sanded the pieces too before painting them. That texture look sucks ballsy
