One of our worse nightmares as evo enthusiast is to be on the high way and have a big ass piece of tire fly at you and not being able to swerve out of the way.. happen to me a couple of days ago. Finally have a day off to try and fix it. Instead of going to a paint shop or something i decided to try and do it my self..
Went to my local hardware store and picked up some fine grit sand paper aswell as some medium grit paper..Â*
some places were worse off than others so i had to apply a little more pressure but for the most part light pressure was enough to do the job
Before, decided to take a pic once i already started so the rubber was worse than shown..

after : )Â* Â* came out nice and clean. I cant see any fade on the paint from the sand paper. Im sure if i got all close and personal there is a slight diff but i cant tell.. just wiped it down with a wet rag and bam done.
