ok i was bored today so i ran up to autozone and picked up a can of primer, dark loreado red metalic, and flat black paint all three automotive for things i am doing to my car the primer and red is for the driver door handle and the bottom of the door. the flat black is for that ugly grayish thing under the edge of the car all the way around figured it would look better here is a before and after pic of the door handle. before after how did i do

Looks pretty dang good. So you're going to get new handles and shave the locks now, even though you just painted this one? Haha

Also, I'm planning on painting that gray trim black as well eventually, so make sure you post a pic of that when you're done so I can see how it looks! Haha

Gray trim black? It is supposed to be black. They sell exterior trim paint just for this if it is faded in flat and gloss. I use tire shine on mine but it isn't faded gray..

Yeah, is yours gray around the fogs and on the back bumper but black on the sides? I'm almost sure that mine didn't just fade like this
