Well, those of you who remember me getting hit by the idiot ricer who was riding my ass, I finally got my new parts and Ive been working nonstop for the past week. For those of you who dont know, go here,http://forums.2gnt.com/dcboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=38&topic_id=159364&mesg_id=159364&listing_type=search . I did run into some probs with the back bumper, so I ended up molding it to the body. You notice something missing? I got rid of the park bench of a wing,lol. Well let me know what you guys think. This was my first time using an HVLP spraygun, so gimme your opinions and suggestions.

The problem that I had will vary for each rearend. The problem I had is, you know on the side where the tip of the tailights are? Then where the bumper meets the body theres a vertical line and to a paralell line? The paralell line matched up flush, but the vertical line, there was like a 1/2" gap in between the body and the bumper. I hope I explained that good enough and didnt confuse you

Well first off, I have to decide what color. Its just primed for the winter, for now. The only reason I did it before winter, is because of the accident I was in. I just wanted to get the bumper back on and get the car running again.

Speaking of the color a clear, thats what really scares me. I learned its not that hard to spray primer. Im hopin color and clear are atleast half as easy as what of Ive done so far.
