make sure you get them clear coated really well or by a shop, or unfortunately they will fade. I did mine the same way, added about 3-4 coats of glosscoat and then took them to a friends body shop and had clear sprayed on them, hopefully that does the trick.

Yeah... he uses a small spray gun and a heat booth or something like that.

He actually works for a local body shop that does exclusive repairs for a local acura and infiniti dealer here in town.
