Oh and I agree with the rattle can guys,and make sure you get the primer made for plastic. It's more expensive but you'll thank me later...

thx for the solid advice!(before the fact, rather than after)

if u dont sand it, mite as well not even do it. dont have to be meticulous with it for a decent job like ceo was saying, but i garantee itll look like shit if u just load it up with primer the way it sits now, and then load more yellow on top of it.

if you wana take the time to do it right, ill explain in detail what ceo was talkin about, and what steps u can skip-if ur already kinda set on a 40mph/40ft paint job, i wont bother

Same here, I can give you some pretty solid advice on it if you run into any issues. And like tigger said, definitely go with a plastic specific primer, itll adhere a lot better that way. Other than that youll really only need the paint you want to use, some tack cloths, fine grit sand paper, and the clear coat.

these guys are right...

rattle can if you prep right...but dont waste money on a cheap sprayer, get a good one...

you saw all the painting I did with my old honda, been there done that a few times...

problem with rattle can is after awhile it will start looking like crap no matter what you do...especially the gas tank if you spill gas on it! But to get her up n running for now, do what ya gotta do, make a friend later who paints well!!

Prep by sanding plastics nice and smooth, clean'em then do it again, prime it, (i wet sand it as well here sometimes, others may not) then paint her up, let it set up good, wet sand any imperfections, then clear coat it and wet sand again...tedious, but worth it if you do it right, just make sure not to spray it on tooo thick, else it will look like crap...cant wait to see it babe!
