Nice post card shots. Will be nice to see some close ups.

What did you use to sand down the plastic areas?
I normally use the Roloc Gasket remover plastic disk, helps from getting ruts and tears.

we just used the same sandpaper we were using on everything else. Started with like a 300 grit and finished with a 750 I believe. I will get closer pictures of the paint on a warmer day, when I can wash it. Probably a couple of days

I think If i was gonna repeint my truck and do all that work I would have removed the moulings and everything and maybe add a little bit of custum mix to the paint or somethin. That might just be me though. The truck looks good though from what we can see.

I would have if I could have afforded it. This is just a maaco job, cost about $900. For a stock paintjob that is about the cheapest you get around here believe me I checked.
