If you're referring to the sides being glossier, then that's what he wanted.

LoL. Heard of them. Pretty cheap knock off. SATA ftmfw. Oh and think about getting the Sata 3000 with stainless steel needle and spring for the waterbase coming out. That gun has a nice pattern and very fine atomization. Now on the other hand my buddy has a 3M spray gun not too shabby.

My newly repainted interior. Center bezel and radio door is BSP in the center...FM on the sides. Everything else is FM.

Will try to get better pictures (hate shooting in direct sunlight).

After attempting to tint the same set of TYC's twice tonight...this really wasn't my night. The paint booth was literally as cold as a meat locker.

It was laying on nice and even but there wasn't enough heat to let it properly dry. Of course it doesn't help that the TYC owner wants them DARK like in my pictures.
