That's what happens when you go LOW
Just run a little lower tire pressure, all's good.
Oh, and here's the giant pic of that. Notice the custom emblem as well:

Use self etching primer, will help adhere better.

Well, you could use one of these. They have them on the shelf at OReilly's:

Just make sure you tell the body shop you'll be using a Preval sprayer, in case they need to add a thinner to it.

Just call your local auto parts stores, and ask for a preval sprayer for painting. The local places here want about 9 bucks for the unit. You can buy the aerosol can itself for like 5 bucks, if you need a refill. YOu need both the aerosol can and the glass jar.
Hey pete, on that lsk tech article it says to use rubbing compound to give the paint shine, but isn't rubbing compound like really high grit sand paper? Maybe I use it wrong I should get me some scratch remover though, but does the rubbing compound really give it shine?
I should get me some scratch remover though, but does the rubbing compound really give it shine?Rubbing compound is generally pretty aggressive. If you are ending up with a bunch of scratches, try working the polish longer, and with less pressure towards the end.
What are you using to work the polish? Terry cloth towel? MF towel? Foam applicator?
