you got to remember how long I have had this car, there was a 4-5 year time frame where I did nothing to it, but other then that I try to improve something every year.
When I originally painted the car it was my daily, I had less then a 2 week time frame to get the car done, if I had the time then that I had now I would not have the doors and fenders off the car right now, I would have done it back then

I sanded the chip guard down from the doors today, I also primed them with the Uro prime this morning. About to re-spray the bottom of the doors. Now the side skirts will flow smoothly into them.
Im leaving the chip guard on the 1/4 panels, my coupe's paint is beat up there so I figure why not leave it on the vert.
Also ordered my tires today, 225/40/18 and 255/35/18 Bridgestones, cant wait to get em mounted and see how they look on the car.

im going to paint the cowl trim under the wipers, its got some scratches in it and showing the metal under it, I painted Kevin's when I did his car and liked the way it came out- just cant use it for a tool tray anymore once its done.
so cowl trim, tailights, and maybe ill do the wipers again- paint on them is like 12 years old now- and I think im done with painting on it this year.
