| seen it done, and unless you are incredibly patient it looks like shit. also, have fun getting that shit off if you ever decide to really paint your car.
i personally would never do that. too many horror stories | |

| I kinda tried doing this, and it didnt turn out very well for the part that I did. I also read on some forums that that type of enamel is kinda a soft paint, so it gets messed up fairly easily. I tested it out myself, and I was able to chip the paint verly easily off the parts that I painted. | |

| If anyone's seen a red Corolla GT-S hatch back with JDM front and rear bumpers, and a Korean guy named Art driving it, that paint job was done like that. It's pretty nice. Soooo much work though! | |

| Yeah, Art aka 'Tip' has a red 86 with the roller-paint-job.
It's definitely a time consuming job. To make it look good, you need to put time into it. Art's is pretty good, but it's still a 10-footer. | |
