If you want to paint chromed plastic, you have to scuff it with very fine wet&dry, use plastic primer, wet rub it with very, very fine wet&dry, give it a very light base coat and then two or three top coats, wet rub it lightly with a vary, very, very fine wet&dry and then give it a coup...

Heads up when you're doing it, get an etch primer and a good one. I used acrylic paint and had issues of it running off the emblem, and we'd also applied 2 coasts of a plastic primer, so use a good primer.

Experience with Head Unit installs

So I just bought a Eonon M1 headunit for my 08 ES lancer, and I was wondering if anyone has done a head unit swap, and was it pretty simple and easy?

I have also bought a replacement dash to fit the Head Unit and the needed wiring harness.

Cheers

Blacked out the front grill to give it a nicer look.

how to avoid becoming a 'ricer'

I have some planned mods for my 08 Lancer,
Since my car is only an ES its not exactly meant for "speed" and performance, but I'd like to add new nice nice rims (ROTA fighters), front lip, blacked out bumper grill and an interior head unit

Would this make my car a ricer?
