Alrighty!!!!!!
Time for the write up on all the work that took place on Sunday (yes, we did this in an afternoon, my dad and I.
So, a couple pics of what I was starting out with:
And the pic before the bumper was removed:
And after!:
She's naked :S:
A pic with the side skirts removed:
And a pic of the fender liner and side skirt.. Along with a dog thats been dead in the yard for a few days:
JK
Would you believe that lil Yellow piece of crap in the background raped my 13 second mustang??????? Power to weight ratio FTW!
Now for the painting: The paint gun we were using is a lil el-cheapo thing, like $20.00 or something. Works great except the aint was leaking out around the top. Nothing some paper towels and tape could'nt fix!!
The finished product, seperate from my baby:
Now, we weren't going to paint the hood initially, but we later decided that the whole front end would look better if it all matched. SO, 15 mins of wet sanding and a lil prep on making sure paint doesn't get everywhere, and were ready to go.
My dad painted the bumper and fenders, but I painted the hood.. AS you see here:
So...
What does it look like all finished?
Much better I think
Remember my DIY shaved locense plates holes? Man it turned out so good!!!!!!!!
Before:
After!!:
I'm so freakin pleased with how it all came out. The paint though, is by nomeans perfect. I mean, come on, you saw where it was painted. There's some dust in the pant and whatnot and the overall rush of getting it done affected the overall quality. But, it's gonna eventually be repainted and the proper care and prep will be taken.
Now.. I'm gonna add this is because I think it's funny. Remember this pic of me painting, and I told you there were some details to them?
To refresh your mem (try not to stare at my butt too much, plz):
<sighs> Those are my 14 yr old sisters pants
<chuckles> With the fenders removed, it was a pain in the a$$ to wet sand them, so I just sanded them in my lap, which.. when your wet sanding, you get wet.
It was cold!!! My feet/legs were freezing. I went inside, asked for some pants.. And since I don't live with my parents anymore, they didn;t ahve any of mine. All that was there was my sisters.
I like to think she's too big and that it's not me thats too small <chuckles> My buddies got a kick out of it as well as my wife and her friends. I will say though, that they acentuated my curves nicely.....
Ok, thats too gay, you guys enj0y the pics!! <laughs>
