    This is literally the process I do. When I used to buy all my used cars like to the tee. Interior, polish headlights i use the wet sand then clear coat method. On the cars with bad paint but no body damage I would paint the whole car. San the whole thing hit it with primer/filler then used rust oleum 2x gloss paint whatever color that specific paint gives best results. Spray two coats of color of choice, hit it with rust oleum 2x clear about 2 coats then wet sand the whole thing carefully not to sand through the paint then buff it out and bam 💥. Used to flip a car with “ new” paint for under 300 I’d say.

    Nice. Makes me wonder if just spray painting my roof, hood, spoiler and grill would have been easier. I had sun damage on the roof and hood so i covered both in a carbon fibre vinyl from Amazon. About $50. Then to make it all look put togetherl i used the left overs to do part of the grill, black out the emblem, and then did the top of the spoiler. It looked good, but did take the day to do. Maybe paint would have been easier.
    Nice tips and vid. May use some of these one day.

Why not just Sand and paint the factory wheel covers!? Provided they’re not cracked/broken. As they bolt on, they will fit and stay in place better than any snap on after market alternatives. They money saved could go towards a small black lip spoiler on the trunk to coordinate with the front spoiler
