Got bored 2day, so I decided to paint the stockers a different color rather than keeping them black, cuz everyone paints their stockers black.

So I went out and wet sanded the stockers, and painted them white. The white doesnt match my paint, but it doesnt look to bad IMO.

Sry for the crappy camera shot. Night time pics suck on my camera.

Enjoy

 

looks good copycat

 

copy cat haha..i had mine white last year at one point. Copycat

Your car looks clean with the White and Blue

 

i liek the white with white too

they are such a pain in the *** to keep clean though

i am going to get these bad boys one day

 

ST-Lie to hella dumped.

Why the change?

 

Hella dumped??? Noo...

 

EEEEEWWWWW ROB!!! its ugly!!!!!!! haha jk looks good man everytime i see your car it looks clean go get the limited trunk spoiler!

 

Limited trunk spoiler would look nice

 

That does look nice...i have the materials to do the same...but the '08 would look out of place though... it is growin on me...maybe black stockers would be better?

 

How'd yall go about doing yours...mask off the tires, or just have the tires taken off altogether? and the inner dish...ya paint Everything?

 

I just painted the outter faCE. I just used index cards on mine, but I wet sanded the wheels down first.

 

Please be more specific?..Grit?..clear coat?..

 

I just used 600 grit, nothing big, I mean I dont even really know what to exactly use.
So i wet sanded it with 600 grit, for about 15-20 min each rim.

Then cleaned it up. Layed two coats of primer down. Then applied two coats of the color down, and then 1 coat of clear, and lightly wet sanding with 800 in between coats.
so a total of two coats of primer, two coats of white, and two coats of clear.

I went to home depot and picked everything up. Was like 25 bucks. I got the Painter Touch cans.

 

nice touch. i like it

 

seriously considering it...
