the "fitment"...your wheels "sink into the car, if you look around at other members cars the wheels "stick" out more, not sink in. Just go look around at other member's cars and you'll get it.

taking off that shit is going to be hard as hell.. I would call a bodyshop on that one. Or you could try that aircraft quality paint remover. "thats some pretty powerful shit!!" Make sure to use some rubber or latex gloves and have major ventilation, or a gas mask or something. I am pretty sure the fumes on that are toxic. You should be ok if ya just use gloves and do it outside. Just "dont be a dufus. Dont be a dufus!"

The owner of that car said it's a Gulf War tank color, so I guess look up colors used on tanks during the Gulf War.

I figured this would be the best place to post for this question I have. I have to get the bumper and one front fender painted on the SC. I also need to one inch chips fixed on my rear wheel arches. My car is factory lexus Diamond white pearl. Two stage paint and clear. I have been getting quotes around $700 for this. The bumper and fender are both totally prepped and ready to be primed and painted. In my opinion $700 seems really high. What do you guys think? Could it be the chip repair raising the price?
