x2 on that and i would have used ALOT more newspaper

 

i just got back from the detail shop they sold me a can of nightshade. i showed the detail guy who has a sweet f150 he said they were the closest thing to fx2 that hes seen.

the color is pretty close to me it seems a little darker. im going to clear them later and wet sand them with some p2000 wet/dry

im thinking about doing the top half of my mirrors but thats a week or two away.

 

Looks great, very very nice job.

 

i didnt know how hard that would be plus the hobby shop was closed so it was a parking lot mod.

theres no overspray i made sure of that.

 

just curious, why did you do it in a parking lot and not in your driveway?
couldnt wait to get home to do it

 

i live in the barracks so the parking lot is like my driveway

 

Love it gives me hope!! The cold weather could have caused the bubbling.

 

go for it stang i lucked out and napa had my color in stock but im sure u could order any color. just be sure to sand them good and do really light coats

 

Again props to you man, Lookin good

 

i agree with bjp you dont want over spray all over the side of your truck. but they def look real nice

 

Thank you 05 it really wasnt that bad they were already faded so i didnt have much to lose

 

Looks good in the pics. Is the quality up close just as good?

 

Exellent job, im looking to do this also im getting sick of looking at my faded handles.

 

this is the worst spot i could find im sure i can get it out with color sanding

 

This looks great! I think right now the thing I hate the most about my truck is the black handles and buckets on the red truck. What makes it worse is how good the chrome handles look on my neighbor's black Silverado.

That's what I was thinking. When you pull the handle out, can you see the black on the part of the handle that's normally inside the bucket?

I'd like to see that too.
