- Sat May 31, 2008 1:31 pm #57141 Woke up this morning, only found out I have today booked off as holiday from work...

So anyway, I took G's advice and painted my wiper arms...

I really was in a mood where I couldn't be assed to take the wipers off or even the arms, so I thought I would just paint them on

Taped / newspapered the area off...




You can really see where the paint was chipped off...

Primered it all up...





Then came the black paint...






Conclusion:
What a load of fucking shit, this is the worst paint job I've ever done, you can't tell from the pics but the paint was all orange peel.
If anyone is going to do this, I would recomment taking the wipers / arms off first.
Also sand down the old paint first, as I really couldn't be fucked it came out looking like shit.

I painted the front bumper about a week ago too, this also came out fucking shit. I used Ford Red as I couldn't find anyone with an exact match of the red on my car...




I'm starting to lean towards doing a full re-spray of the whole car, I really want a black EG.
