HEY I know this off topic but Im considering converting my GXE to an SE body-Front bumper and side skirts...Do you have any pics of your car -and wut do u think about doing this.
oh and for the scratches-just check out an auto store like Pep boys or Discount Auto... They got all kinds of scratch and swirl removers that should help u out.....
He means for the interior, you cant use scratch and swirl remover for the interior. Well, I guess if you know how to sow, get some really good material from a sowing shop and do it yourself. Make sure you make it smooth because if not it will sag and look ugly.

Yeah I will post a pick when I get home. If you are looking to go for a front bumper go for it... I need to replace my front bumper (due to the fact that the previous owner of my car left me with about 5.000 dollars worth of body work) but I still love my baby!!!! Nissan wanted about 175 for the front bumper and 110
for the rear trunk lid. Pics will be up later. also thanks for the interior ideas...

ok guys, here is how you fix interior scratches in plastic. Get yourself a heat gun, BUT you have to be extreamlly careful about doing this. I'll go through it step by step.
What you need:
1. Heat Gun
2. You need to find a peice if leather, soft plastic, or anything with a texture that matches the texture of the plastic of your car.
3. Your might have to do a lil research on this but there is a company that sells paint to match interior paint for your vehicle.
4.masking tape, and paper.
1st of get you heat gun all warmed up, and slowlly heat up the area around the scratch, continuing into the middle of the scratch.
once it starts to look a lil shinney take that peice of leather with the texture on it and lightlly press it over the heated area .
( caution if your not carefull you will burn the plastic, all you want to do is heat it up so it will be plyable enough to take the pattern.)
repeat this process untill the desire look is found. it will discolor a lil bit, but use your hand to make sure it is nice and flat. even if you cant see a scratch you can always feel it.
ok now hopefully the scratch is gone, (depending on how deep it is, sometimes you just have to do the best you can) tape off all of the stuff around the scratch that isnt painted the same as panel with the scratch. then paper off all the rest of the panel and stuff around the scratch.
get the spray paint shake the hell out of it, hold it about a foot and a half away from the panel, and spray lightlly. dont spray too much. repeat that until the desired look is achieved. now bled outwards. if you just spray it over the heated area, you will see the repair, you need to blend it out.
I hope this helps someone. If you have any questions, e mail me and ill see if i can answer them for ya.
