Seriously!!!

Gotta agree here, that Chrome spray paint looks so cheap.. IMO you should never spray paint from a can.. Just spend the few extra bucks and have some professionally do it.. or go through the entire prep process and buy one of those condensed throw away spray guns that give you an almost professional spray. Most spray from a can never comes out good. But again prep is 80% of your final finish so you could pull it off with a can if done correctly.

Thanks everyone for feedback. This is a extra shroud i had laying around thought id just mess with it.

i agree pre-process makes a difference, I spent 5 minutes on it.

That wasnt a sticker i painted over it was actually what was left from the sticky stuff under the lables, couldnt get that clean enough.

If you could make that, you would be a millionaire. All the ricers would buy them and lord knows whatbtypes of abominations they would create.
