the510keeper Posted November 15, 2013 Report Share Posted November 15, 2013 These pics would of been posted earlier but I got caught up in Post Ass Wet sanding some of the dust off from sealing the inside of the hood and trunk lid. 600gt Paint the holes one coat first, it is a bitch to get in to all the areas of the holes. So a habit is to try and paint in one shot then you have paint running away from your holes. Located a near perfect front apron, had a fiberglass one but they don't fit as well. And I got the crew back. It's like a reunion concert. Vic is scuffing the paint so the stripper will penetrate better. 2 Link to comment
thisismatt Posted November 15, 2013 Report Share Posted November 15, 2013 I've always been curious if anyone has tried just taping off all the seams and holes except for one and then pouring some paint in and tilting it around until everything is covered :P Link to comment
