This might be a repost, and if so my apologies.. kind of in a rush right now. The question I have is about interior repainting. I painted my interior about a year ago.. and it was the first thing I'd ever painted and I didn't do the best job on it.. so since I have some time I thought I'd repaint it. This time I am following The_Alpha_Male's DIY for painting interiors.. is there any other special steps I should follow since I am repainting? Or should I just go ahead and follow the steps? Any feedback is helpful, I'm not a professional painter or anything here tongue.gif

yeah, and use some clear plastic primer, or clear adhesive promoter as a primer.

C-Dawg,

Off topic a bit but do you still have your contact with the guy who made your hood? I wanted to get the same hood again because the current one is all messed to hell in the corners from ripping off. Not a good thing when it happened, laughed about it, and still at three and a half years later its holding up after a little reinforcement.

I want to get the same hood again, but looking for it in Cf or at least someone to make it in carbon fiber. If I can't find anything then probably here in two months I'm just going to get the scooted 1 carbon fiber hood.

Thanks and hope you can help....
