| I'm not flakin out guys... Just been taking the car apart, getting a little head start for my build week coming up. I was able to clean up that white fender welting and I think I'm going to keep it rather than replace it with black. Took this a few days ago, got a little more done since then. One piece at a time...  |

| No more Pink Bug? Can't say that I was fond of the color That's a lot of sanding and priming that you've done, it's looking better already

| Well I was shooting for completion by now and to make it out to the meet tonight but it doesn't look that way. My wife comes home tonight and instead of a pretty bug sitting in the middle of the garage, she will see:  I'm really surprised at how well it turned out, especially for me not having painted a thing in my life. I did open up the holes for the side molding pieces and plan to re-install them to cover the 2-tone line.  I'll have to wet sand still but I should see you guys next week un-pink  |

Good ol Rustoleum. I had read about the $50 paint job done with rollers but I have been seeing people having even better results spraying it very thinned out. |
