[QUOTE="Black Gold 380R, post: 16690582, member: 70025"] Okay, I got the black sprayed for the side stripes. I swear, sanding sucks, but masking is almost just as bad. Sanding is physical labor and masking is so tedious LOL. Trying to figure how to tape so you keep paint out of areas you don't want it while keeping the paint lines smooth is so damn time consuming. It took me all day to do this and of that time it only took me 30 minuets to spray. And it only took that long because I had to wait for the paint to flash before applying the next coat LOL. Got everything masked up. [ATTACH type="full"]1726758[/ATTACH] I created the wrap around pocket so the side stripes go into the car. [ATTACH type="full"]1726759[/ATTACH] The trick here was to mask everything so I had complete coverage, but could still open and close the door. [ATTACH type="full"]1726760[/ATTACH] Got the black laid down on the outside. Very happy with the results of the base coat. [ATTACH type="full"]1726761[/ATTACH] Driver's side looks great too. [ATTACH type="full"]1726762[/ATTACH] Here is the inside where the stripe will wrap around and into the car. [ATTACH type="full"]1726763[/ATTACH] I made sure to get the inside lip of the QTR panel as well. [ATTACH type="full"]1726764[/ATTACH] I even got the front inside portion of the rocker panel. I want to make sure you don't see any breaks in the stripes except for the panel breaks. [ATTACH type="full"]1726765[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
