Again, just being honest
When you say "texture" it makes me think "orange peel" and when I think orange peel I think cheap paint job....

This car looks great
I love the rear spoiler and front spoiler being the same color, Like I said before, the spoiler the same color as the car, just was not noticable enough, NOW its PERFECT!!.. you never heard of powder paint? how old are you ? that might explain the reason why.. any way. again thanks for your objective opinions. everybody has there own taste, even if it is bad. MINE(of course is the good kind) lol.. any way. IM right , your wrong.. nah nah nah lmao. I LOVE THIS SPOILER PAINT JOB!!

Please tell me this isn't a ghetto way of powder coating.
Powder coating is a method by which electrically charged powder coating material is spray-applied to a grounded work piece. Electrostatic attraction holds the powder to the part to be coated until heat is added to flow the powder together and cure it.
An electrostatic powder coating system is comprised of a powder feeder, power unit or electrostatic voltage generator, electrostatic spray gun(s), and a powder recovery system

Anyway, Im still curious about the powder paint. Texture in car paint is just stupid IMO, like those "lace" paint accents used in some muscle cars

I don't understand how you were able to mix the paint with baby powder. Baby powder clumps easily. Instead, did you lace the spoiler with the baby powder and spray over it?

I'm interested in this baby power thing as well. I'm only 32 so I might be too young since I never heard of it. Then again, I'm not too knowledgeable about painting either although it is something I want to learn. That is why I'm curious about the reasons and/or techniques in where baby powder would be used.

BABY POWDER???? Is this a ghetto version of powdercoating? I think the spoiler being in a different color is tacky. It kinda makes you look like you couldn't afford to paint it and just could not wait to put it on....almost like those ricer civics who put on their unpainted body kits.
