My newly painted trim, 1 pic

[cwapface]

I didn't think this was Supra Showoff worthy but mods please correct me if I'm wrong.

I just got my trim back from the paint shop. When I gave it to them it was full of gouges and deep scratches, and now it's looking good. Things like swapping out broken clips were easy enough, the only tricky spot is on the door trim. I'll make a how to for the other side when I get non-rainy time to install it. Anyway, I think it is the hotness:

Trim looks good, but what's that red blotch at the bottom near the front fender?

nice paintin job
i painted mine flat black...i need to redo some of them tho...and/or find flat clear coat

I repainted mine myself with duplicolor exact match. worked out great. Yeah, the door mouldings were a bit of PITA since the 89 mouldings that I bought my 87 were somewhat different for clips. I had to cut half the clip so it wasn't so thick. Looks awsome. Great work

damn man.... i wish mine wasnt pearl...how much did the shop charge you if you dont mind? i cant find anyone around here to do mine right for under like 300 bucks and thats crazy high imo to paint some mouldings...

id do it myself but its a pearl paint so i cant just go and spray it out of a can and it would be good....

whats the info

sorry to disappoint, but when i hit a deer back in july or so i negotiated painted wheels and trim into the repair bill with this shop. I finally got the trim early this week and i'm still waiting on a foglight and white front emblem from them. Boo for timeliness. My deductible after insurance was $500 and i had already paid them 250, so they said they'd forget about the rest of the bill because it took so long. That's why there is no pic-by-pic

Looks good.

I'm going to try and paint my mouldings myself. I'm going to buy some touchup paint in a spray can and go at it. Of course with all the necessary prep work.

IdealSupra,

Is you paint factory pearl or aftermarket. I used duplicolor and it matches perfectly. Do a google maybe you can find the duplicolor exact match if it is factory paint

 

[americanjebus]

yup, gettin clear sidemarkers, it just looks so much cleaner on the white car.
