I can't believe there is that much of a difference. Did you use the same can? Where the body kit parts lighter to start with?
I was going to paint my Civic now, and then paint the body kits when I got them, but this has got me thinking I should wait and do it all at the same time.

Yeah always do the body and kits together to get stuff nice and even through out. There's 2 things going on here with money. First I gotta say that the difference is there but is more noticable in that pic. I sprayed the green over the red on the body. I sprayed the green over the yellow on the kits. This is where the problem lays. I'm not worried though. I know I'll be painting this body often, as anyone who's seen my "rash" pics knows.

YEah I know,lol.
I'm not too hot on deacls and whatnot, but, unfortunatly I had some company show up while stripping. Long story short I had some melting of the plastic and I didn't wanna spend all week sanding So a two toned decaled track car it had to become.
No BC I didn't paint over, wish I had though.

I left the ELO (easy lift off) decal/paint remover on there too long (over 12hrs too long). So when I started brushing the paint off some of the spots that soaked in too much start to stretch (best way to put it). Oh well.
