hey guys would you look at your cars and tell me if on the bottom of the quarter panel if there is texture in the paint, im getting my car back from the body shop and they sanded the texture off. mine has texture under the molding on the fender, door and quarter. i just want to know if that is stock or what.

This rocker guard undercoating is the reason I went crazy with the Aircraft Remover before repainting my FC. It would have been a pain to sand it down so I just stripped it off, all in the name of weight reduction!

no need to sand it down if its in good shape, scotchbrite and some prep and blend liquid do the job just fine, and you dont have to replace it that way. Just shoot over it
