          I've been meaning to look into this as well. How much should I expect to use with a trunklid and mtech I spoiler? Just a couple cans at the most?

                    I know it'll be a bitch, but I do have my stock trunklid if it really bothers me. Just trying to figure out my options.

                        ^ That would be sweet.

                        Also, I'm picking up a sub frame on Friday. I already have reinforcement plates for it, I'm going to need help welding them on though. Does anybody know of a place near Los Gatos where I could get this done for a reasonable price?

                          I know it's a temporary fix to the messed up fender until i can afford to paint the whole car.

                              red is easier to match than bronzit. yours will look a little off but not too bad
