Looks good

How many coats? I want to do it when I change my brake pads, very soon

In the rear shot with no wheel, what is holding up the car? :wacko: It's floating :wacko:

I used three coats. It's floating because I have the jack in the middle of the car to support the whole side.

Yeah, it turned it out a lot better than I expected. For anybody else that decides to do it, make sure you use a lot of coats. Otherwise, it will look like butt.
