- Sun May 06, 2007 10:52 pm #7419 I decided to step my game up and do some more DIY work to the ride.. I decided since the rear of the car was gutted that I'd make it a bit more presentable, and I also decided the Red calipers were a lil mid 90's for me and I brought those back to life too...


4 cans of Duplicolor Truck bedding spray
2 cans of Kyrlon exterior/interior flat black spray
1 Duplicolor Caliper paint kit

Materials..




Before..





After..

The spraypaint was used for the sidewalls of the trunk, I used the truck bedding for everything else









I taped up the Fuel Pump cover since I didnt wanna go over it...im going with a carbon fiber cover...




ONTO THE CALIPERS.....

OLD ( 3 years this red shit lasted too)



NEW

Race cars are like boats I guess. Time to bust out another thousand.

- Mon May 07, 2007 12:30 pm #7447 Duplicolor also has a product called Textured Metallic. There is a few colors, one is really dark almost like the color of the truck bed liner. That's what I've been using on my interior. They have silver & graphite & charcoal, if you're ever looking for more color options for the interior.

- Mon May 07, 2007 3:49 pm #7456 Nice car! Kinda of a nub question but what exactly does the holes in the rear bumper do? I've seen them on drag cars but never known what they're for!

p.s. Definately considering truck liner for my hatch! Looks great!

its called an air diffuser. Its for releasing the air that gets trapped behind the bumper. Your right its usually used in drag racing... I no longer use it to daily drive though

That definately makes sense It is a good idea i suppose! I think i might look into making something that blocks air from under the car. Will look stock
