3$ touch up paint pen + other gadgets for your car

3$ touch up paint pen + other gadgets for your car

Postby mig0s » Sun May 09, 2010 2:38 pm

Hey y'all, just wanna share my 2 cents,

There is a site called www.dealextreme.com. They got A LOT of little gadgets and tools for cheap prices. They also include free shipping on EVERYTHING. They ship in usually 2 weeks and i've ordered a lot of stuff and received all of them.

One thing is a toyota black touch pen, for 3.50$. I received it 2 days ago and today, on a non-rainy day, I painted all the missing paint spots on my front bumper ( I got the car like that, have no idea what happened). Here you guys can see the results

Before:

After:

Here's the link of what I used:

And here's the pen for white and silver solaras (no other colors are available.):

Anyways, they've got other cool stuffs like LED car leds and programmable Toyota replacement keys.

Enjoy

Hey, nice touch up job! I wish my attempt with the Lunar Mist touch up paint from Advance Auto Parts turned out anywhere near that good lol. I'd have to guess that those chips on your front bumper were from rocks on the road. Seems pretty common.

Chicks like guys with skillz... bow hunting skills... nun-chuck skills... front bumper touch up paint skills...

Cool site..

LONG SHOT: if you got your car used, chances are they had the front bumper repainted with cheap paint. OR.. it could be just age. LOL.

i know i'm taking this a little off topic, but if i sanded down some of the rock chips and other crap what grit sand paper do you think i should use? and also if it would be a good idea to even do that or just use touch up paint right over it
