so i finished up my tails this morning, i totally screwed up the left side because i thought i could buff out the orange peel, but i ended up burning thru the clear coat and paint on some parts lol. oh well im too lazy to re-do it so i guess it'll have to do for now. hope ya like it

Well good first attempt I guess. Next time take more time with the finish work, at least the passenger side looks alright.

yeah, i really didn't know what i was doing at first. i thought you just have to sand the clear coat lightly then buff. i learned from my mistake which is why the passenger side is much better.

Best looking mistake I've ever seen. I actually prefer that look instead of completely smoked.

Good try... NOW do you see how hard and time consuming it really is..?

just take it all off with paint thinner.. do light very light coats, lightly wet and in the sink or bath tub, the let dry, and on to the next coat until you get the desired shade level ,Then clear coat 3- 4 times.

i was a little intimidated at first because im not that DIY type of dude, but i would say this mod isn't as hard as i thought it would be, just have to take the time to mask and prep everything
