Yea, it took me 6 hrs to do mine laying on the floor of my garage. I didn't remove the exhaust either.... my problem was a frozen pin on the carrier. Yer going to have a huge grin on your face when you drive it down the road ofr the first time...Quote:

From what I understand, all I do is apply it, let it dry overnight, use some rubbing compound to get the excess off, and I'll be set.
You have heard of the product "Dr. COlorchip" correct?Quote:

I ve been reading about this Dr. Colorchip. Do they sell a product that would "fill in" those pesky chips on the front of the hood from small particles/peebles etc that blast the front of my whip when I am supersonic? If I could at least fill them in a bit and mask the undercoating color with the orient blue color, I would be much happier.
Dr colorchip FTW! :headbang

labor ended up coming to $392 for the ssk though. so FYI to those considering. although the DIY is 6-8 hours of hell (so i've read) so may or may not be worth it depending on your appetite for challenge.
