[quote name='ApneaBlue' date='Aug 29 2005, 06:57 AM']While 94t was hung over from our previous night of drinking I had the pleasure of fitting the bumper...Matches pretty decent. Just have to wetsand and buff and it's all good.

I'm about to finish it off and noticed that it matches the hood, headlight covers, and right fender better than it matches the left fender. I thought that was kinda wierd. Its a tad lighter than that fender.

you might have done what I did with Mike's bumper when I painted it and not put enough red on that part of the bumper to cover all the primer, I ended up taking his off and putting more color there

Thats more than likely what happened. Did you blend the clear after you did that area, or painted the whole thing over? I don't know much about blending, and not sure if I could do it right.

Perfect-it is great stuff for cutting.
I would get in the habit of masking the edges between panels, pretty easy to burn the paint off the edges if you're not careful, the only reson I mentioned it was because I noticed the gobs of compound in a few spots.
Looks pretty good though, sucks to run out of product halfway thoguh the job.
