Very nice.
On the track, I am fearless.
If you were as slow as me, you wouldn't be afraid either.

A spray can job? Nice!! If is from a spray can, make sure you don't hit anything. This kind of paint is not very flexible and will crack with the slightest pressure.

Yes it is. Purchased it a few months back, and got to working on the body when I had some spare time on the weekends.Originally Posted by trickyrix
I'm very happy with how it turned out...
I did the "$50 paint job"...
Looks better than mine
Nice job.
Great Job...
...And it shines better than my $600 Maaco paint job did.

Post some details on the paint job! Roller or spray can?
He used the roller method. Looks great especially if you compare it to the stock peeling paint.
Details!!?!@?
What does it look like up close? What paint? How many coats? Wetsand? What grit? Buff? Orbital and/rotary?

Man that looks great!! From the pictures it looks like a factory job!
Anyone know how well Rustoleum black matches Brilliant Black? Might be a cheap cure for my problem, and would look better than a rattle can.

I don't know if the black will match, but the white was very close to factory. Infact, my mirrors are the original miata white.
Here are some upclose:
