Here are the pics (not the best) they are the only one I managed to take while I was doing the various stages of paint:

The car with no mirror covers:

When primed and lightly sanded:

Black dust coat:

3 coats of black:

Image

All lacquered up and polished (finished):

Image

All done and back on the car:

I am currently re-doing the passenger side... something happened when it was drying and I'm not happy with the finish. Will upload a pic of both on the car when its done.
