Good idea, done.

 

no only if the shifter in my 5 speed would stop peeling i have a new one on order but have to wait a month for it to come in

 

THANKS GUYS
now evrybody can see it woohoooo

 

how does a shifter peel ? lol

 

the shfter just started to peel and chip. from what i heard is that the co. did not primper the ball before paint and the paint is not sticking to the ball

 

I assume he has an RS4 the shifter **** is painted torched penny as well.

 

yes ted the shift **** is color matched to the car. it is cool execpt for the peeling

 

Yeah the **** is cool. I also like the big ball and feel of the ****...checked onan RS4 out a couple weeks ago

 

great info, thanks.

 

wow i love this site for information like this!

 

wow...

thats awesome..

 

any idea how much the paint costs????

 

Paintscratch.com

one pint $90
quart $132
Gallon $347

 

YAY I've seen do it yourself kits for polarized and pearlesant paint kits. Do they have on for TP.... I'd like to hit up the interior. The dealership wants 400 to do it I say F that.

 

its just a basecoat/clearcoat paint. go to your local paint store and buy a pint and do it yourself. $400 seems a bit high, what were you wanting done?

 

I thought it is a three stage paint. and if thats the case are there any tricks to doing it right. I'll be buying DIY areosol cans

 

nope, its only a 2 stage bc/cc. the color changing paints are actually easier to paint, dont ask me why, but they seem to spray on easier. with the mystic mustangs you can actually panel paint the color, instead of blending. no special techniques or anything for this color, just spray it as if if were any other color.

 

So what typr of paint store would i need to go to??? I'm not car paint swavey. Like ICI or SW or Dunn Edwards. Or is there like an actual car paint store??
