so roughly how much did that cost?

Feds

Effing bumpers. AFTER I got them BOTH back on, I discovered the easy way to remove them. Oh well... Starting to look like a car again.



I think I am going to do something special for the grille...





Oh, and the paint cost around 1800.

Base and clear for $1800?

Feds

Base, clear, minor filling of dents. Oh, and the paint is a good quality dupont. There is some money to be saved with a cheaper paint, if you chose a non-fading colour.



I dropped the car off as it appeared on the trailer. No glass, no trim, no bumpers, no interior.



What would I do different?



1: More stripping than I did. Every clip and fastener left on somehow takes off an area of paint about 2X the size of the clip!

2: Power wash around the door hinges. I didn't clean this area, and neither did the painters. Good thing it's very well hidden.

3: Buy a new lower front valence. Only because mine is mangled.

Cheers!

Did you completely strip the entire interior as well? Also what about the engine bay? Did they spray the underside of the car with chassis paint?

Feds

Stripped the interior, since I'm changing it to black.



No paint in the engine bay, since I'll get it done next year when the motor is out.



No paint under the car.

Ordered my personalized plate today. Since it is now mine, and you can't steal it:



UNBRNTHC
