Probley not, I messed with the wheel wells already and im going to finish it...im so upset that I kinda messed them up alittle bit....my sweater touched it while they were both drying and got red lent all over one side....Stupid mistake..!!!

They dont need much done just alittle sanding and I should be ready to paint them again sometime next week when the sun is out...Im just going to prep them again and this time paint them in my boxers!!!

But when im ready to have them all fresh looking, im forsure heading out to Warrens pad to work on them...

Man OH Man!!!!! My dayum fingers are in pain from all the sanding i had to do from my first mess up!!!! I will never ever work on Plastic again!!!!

So thanks to the big homie ELKO WARREN....I followed his step we talked about and i actually used plastic primer filler and stuck to it great...going to let the primer sit and cook, then tomorrow hit the flat satin black and i should be done with this one...then off to the other one....oh my god why me!!!! here are the results so far....

Talking my time with this and letting primer set real good...then hit the black paint tomorrow if it dont rain...

Man o man!! You got a show winner right here bruh!! Nice. Imma get with you on your chrome hookup. How much if you dont mind me asking...OH!! And on the wells...DO NOT...I repeat..Do NOT use acetone to clean em now that you have the primer on there. The acetone will stripp the primer right off. Try some "Denatured alcohol" and make sure they wells are thoroughly cleaned prior to painting...
