WELL MY SEI'S MIRRORS WERE LOOKING KINDA BAD FROM ROCK CHIPS AND BUG DAMAGE, SO I REPAINTED THEM WITH MY HANDY AIRBRUSH:
HERE THEY ARE BEFORE:
HERE THEY ARE CLEANED, SANDED, AND PRIMED W/ CLEAR ADHESION PRIMER:
AND THE FINAL RESULT AFTER BASE EMERALD GREEN, CANDY BLUE PEARL, THEN CLEARCOAT:
I THINK I MATCHED THE FACTORY BLUE GREEN PEARL PAINT PRETTY GOOD. THE FRONT BUMPER IS NEXT WHEN I HAVE TIME. I WANT TO DO THE HOOD ALSO BUT IT'S TOO BIG OF A PIECE TO DO WITHOUT A PROFESSIONAL SPRAYER
very nice. i like the color you chose, it goes good with the car.

yah dude! everyone bump for sick ass mirror. is that si blue? looks damn good! good job!
3geez for life.
thanks guys! i painted it with emerald green first. after many coats, i then coated it with candy blue pearl, which is transparent, lets the green shine through. then i clearcoated it with good thick layers for added shine. where the sun hits, it's green. it's blue in the shadowy areas
Looks ALOT better then the factories did. You did a great job. I can't wait to see the bumper since it's going to be a bit more of a challenge.
nice man, do u have any pics of them from a distance?

yes of course, once i get the custom fiberglass fenders and hood done. it would either be pearl white with chrome flakes or candy blue pearl with sapphire flakes.
That's a great job you did on those mirrors. Mad props for them mirrors man.
