Donut in Stockton! 209

lol im pretty sure thats a

I originally saw this rear seat cushion a while back but had forgot my debit card and only had enough cash for a specific item i went for so i tucked this inside an older GMC truck at the junk yard, went back and bought it for $15 with head rest covers.

The corolla i pulled them out of had tint on reason why this one is not sun bleached. Washing the cushion but wont install it till i tint the rear window....was thinking 35% or something.

ive got limo witch is 7% on the back 17% on the back sides and 35% on the front sides, its a gradiation from dark to light so u dont really notice a raipid change from black to transparent, thats what i would recomend..

I dont want limo tint in the back....I have 5% on my body kit rolla.

IDK maybe something a bit lighter but not too dark

well u could do 17 on the back and 35 on the sides or 35 all around lol, all of which is completly within legal limit

maybe, ill see....but for now since the 5 speed is still parked ill just set that project aside.

sounds good, and make sure u dont get that tint that turns purple after a while xP

ohh no, i got good stuff....same stuff i used on my body kit rolla years ago

well i know not ur front window, but front sides u can

yup, true shit....

but its all good, i only want to tint the back 3 only....front 2 sides stay clear

More updates on the 5 speed rolla, i decided to align everything on the front. Looks alright just needs paint...

New hood, bumper and black housing clear corner headlight set.


tried to fix the clear coat damage with a buffer but still looks like crap...hardly noticeable unless you get up front to it. BUT it dont matter, going to get the whole car repainted.




I decided to align my headlights and bumper on the body kit rolla, also washed the front end and polished.

i dont have the tool to realighn headlights, but i definatly need it done..

wait i thought it required a screwdriver with a special head like a star shape?

ryan cmon lol

no but what i meant was i realigned the headlights to flow with the hood and the bumper i put the brackets behind it so it can sit straight with the bottom portion of the headlights....its not perfect but its alot better than what it was before.

my god the front end looks so much better without the stupid plate... -_- stupid california laws

well i haven't looked at it for a while so i guess ill look at it again, but yea my passenger light is tilted in toward the center about half an inch to much the other one is fine, i think..

but ur cars coming together well, just cant wait to see that full lipkit installed n what not

ok nvm i was trying to adjust the headlights horizontally but i guess you can only adjust them vertically lol

lol nvm i found it, i wasnt noticing the change cuz it was turning so slowly but i got it now xD

for the record tho the vertical one is a bitch to get to without taking off the light..

well, today i decided to paint the inside of my trunk and gas door.

I needed to use the duplicolor paint but they only have it on ready to spray quarts so finding a rattle can of the paint was hard...i did a bit of research and found this called preval


You can basically use any paint you want but you have to make sure its not think paint or it wont come out the nozzle. My paint is ready to spray so no need to worry about that...



Im guessing i forgot to sand the trunk and gas door because the paint started to flake off very easy so i got some 600grit wet sand paper and did the whole thing, same with the trunk. Here are the results...







Bought some automotive clear coat, hopefully it wont flake off this time, also did the trunk arms and the back where the corner lights go. Now next step is to do the rocker panels, wet sand the whole thing with 600grit, 1000grit then 2000grit and shes ready for paint. Yes im repainting the car, why? Because I will most likely only use about 2 quarts this time since the base coat blue will still be on the car and not that much paint will be needed. Bought a gallon of 2k part clear which hardens and should make the car look nice.

So the preval gun id have to rate it a 7 out of 10....I was not too impressed with it but it does get the job done...

The spray pattern is not wide, you cant shake the bottle at all when you are spraying or it will start to sputter and give uneven spots so it has to stay put and consistent. I don't recommend this for large applications, just small areas and touch ups. Its a neat handy tool/creation but it can be improved with a wider fan tip, larger air can. They should release a bigger one really.
