Who says girls cant paint?!?

Okay, so I have been thinking about ordering new fender flares.... But I decided that first, I would go to Walmart and pick out some paint and paint them myself and if i screwed them up too bad I would order new ones.... low and behold they turned out fantastic... and even have that girlish charm ive been lookin for!

Also posted are some pics of the side I haven't gotten to yet... but I plan on finishing them tomorrow!! Woohoo GO ME!

Nice! Did you use the Krylon black? Probably used 3-4 coats to make them look that good

HAHA if i can do it, you can too!! It wasn't that hard, the only thing that was a pain was actually taking them off and putting them back on... i have little hands but it was still hard to reach underneath and get those screws out!

if you need help i guess i could come help

it's not the difficulty it's the laziness.

I've never heard "girls can't paint" only "girls don't like to get dirty". Great job by the way.

Just so you all know, If I think you're an ******* I will gladly tell you. I'm not your everyday girl, so don't expect me to act like one. And yeah, I do like it topless and dirty!
