DIY: Quick touch up for Sunlight Silver.
My new discovery.....
I did the "DIY: Better Looking OEM Rear Diffuser" and accidentally painted my Sunlight Silver 8.
EUREKA! the paint is almost match.
I had some small but deep scratch on my rear bumper so I just touched it up.

Good thing is, if you over paint it, you can remove it easily by using your nail to scratch it out.
Here are the results.

From few steps away, almost like new.

Nice! I use the same markers to make my OEM Rear Diffuser to stand out.

Got that scratch from the parking lot.
One of my first mini curse.
My ex-director hit my car.
She was a crappy driver but a nice boss, so I did not mind.
Beside, I was her 1st assistance....
Another curse struck me couple months ago.
Some idiot hit and run at the parking lot.
I used same market to fix it.
Will post pix after fix later.
