painting headlight housings. The cuts were made on the 3.2 valence without a problem, but painting is another story. I needed to go back to spay painting 101. Couple of the areas were not as smooth as others, but after painting edges black and middle mesh silver did not care for the look on the car. Secondly, I worked on Bipes angel eyes. Filled holes on housing and painted darker color. When trying to put eyes in several hours later accidently scratched the paint. Back to Sanding. After 2hrs of sanding and priming my wife stated I think the lighter silver looks better on the car. ARRRRGGHHHHH!!!! So fed up with the whole painting process I took housing to paint shop. Paint with clear will be harder and not scratch as easy when putting eyes back in.

If you wondering Im not going to use the 3.2 Valence peice. If your good with sanding and paint you can prob make it look better. Email me with what you think it might be worth.
