Originally posted by Ziggens96werd, i've got a little of both. egk2, could i ask you for a couple tips sometime? Eventually i'm going to refinish my rockers and the small (painted) section of the front fender right above the rocker panel. is it going to be hard to get the latter part to look good? the paint matching/blending issues leave me with some doubt. thanks
questions when you're ready and I'll do my best to answer them.

paint up to the side moldings, it'll be harder to notice the color difference as there will only be 2 little spots where new paint touches old, and you can just wet sand the taped line and then buff, and it'll look blended. easy as pie

I love living on the west coast :D
as far as the valance, mine isn't rusty, but it's dented.. I want to cover it with an mtech2 rear apron anyway, so no biggie.
with an aftermarket one but then I would need side skirts so we repaired it,
rust is gone for now not hidden.

Originally posted by ACHTUNGI have the exact same rust spot on my car. Yours came out very nice. I have to do the same thing in a few months. It's good to see the process. Also, I wouldn't have known to use chip paint.
for that matter. The rocker paint is key, I wanted the rear valence to look
stock again.
