There are imperfections, especially considering its my first time doing it, but it looks nice, or so i think. 

 

Also the color of the blue isnt quite represented properly, but its close enough when flash is off. 


the blue looks fantastic.

Just wanted to update on this: 

 

To anyone who wants to attempt to do so, feel free to do it. It looks nice, and i prefer it over the stock however, make sure to do it right. I somewhat regret it, because I guess i didnt prep correctly, and the paint is coming off very easily from small bumps and knicks. 

 

The proper method would have been to probably wetsand them, then use rubbing alchohol, i skipped the wetsanding process.

 

Also i would advise a clear coat, to protect the overall coat, and prevent knicks again. Overall if i could find a professional painter i trusted, i might consider giving it to them to possibly find a more durable paint.
