Thanx guys. But you have to pay shipping fees at autostyle. And its expensive there. I know janjira had duplicolour but its near vanguard mall. Cant even remember exactly where. Ill have a look thanx. Tauzty you mean that flyer with the custom angel eye headlights? Got it on powerflow bellvilles website

shipping fees is R70 boet, not that expensive

also you can try that xtreme motorsports there opp. N1 City TWT...i think they might also have

fyi, ebie had his center console on his coupe's dash re-sprayed & colour coded to the colour of his car at XLNT Panelbeaters (one of our club's discount sponsors) - maybe you can even try them if you don't wanna diy

Thanx guys ill maybe check that place out at n1 city. The problem of R70 shipping fee is that the paint cost about R150 and then in the end i pay much more where i couldve buy it in cptwn for R150. And ill need more than one and maybe some primer aswell so the shipping might be more in the end. I really wanna do it myself cause i need practice. Theres alot of stuff that need to be resprayed eventually so wanna do it myself.. But ill see where i can get it.

I would recommend you use a quality plastic primer first before respraying them. Plastic has a nasty habit of peeling sometimes after you spray it, be it with normal spray paint or automotive paint.

Cwl.. I know midas in paarl sells sprayon. Maybe I must just buy it there. cause Janjira only have grey duplicolour paint.. Diablo what primer did you use? do you get like a sprayon primer aswell? I'll do a few practice rounds aswell.. never worked with primer before but im a quick learner.

I used the Plastic Primer from Sprayon. All you do is,after cleaning your plastics,just sray the Primer onto it like normal spray,give 2 coats.Then once its dry,itl be a grey colour.Then u just spray your colour paint onto that :duim: As many coats as you like.Rather give a lot of coats,than spray a lot at once to minimize tear drops.

I used normal sprayon that you buy at midas or auto parts (filco).. bought the primer and spraypaint there.. just prep the surface good with sandpaper and be patient. lol.. thats normally the problem.. and work by layers.. think ive got 6 light layers on. the more layers the better,.lol..

Can you put up that pic again? I want to do mine also, keen to see how yours came out. Did you put a clear coat on after? Would that help against scratches?
