I feel your pain, when I grafted my dash pods on my A pillar it took me 4 re-sands to get it right, with 3 paint colors, one textured just to get it to match the factory tan/grey decent. Fiberglass, bondo and primer were my friend.

Also, with all these 20-something car nuts why has NOONE made an Optimus Prime reference?

Sine note: has anyone found a paint to match the interior silver color?

WHY GOD WHY?!!?!

jokin man, the calipers look great, just red and PURPLE? I am not feelin that interior AT ALL, im glad your going to redo it!

and

Wow! I think your tC should take you out to the barn and shoot you.
harsh but funny nontheless!

let us know how the next one comes out!

and this is exactly why i will never do my own painting - leave it to the professionals!

Life is about trial and error, I actually like the concept, it's different.. the paint quality could've been better.

On a good note, you did great on the calipers !

Those pictures are way old. If anyone finds pictures of his car in its current state it's pretty well done. I still don't like the coloration but the quality is top notch. And the scheme is prevalent throughout the inside of his car so there's no worry of awkwardness. Weird or eccentric, yes very much so, but not awkward.
