    Why so blue, panda bear?

    The bronzit valance and the cancerous fender are off . . .


    Scott called this "light surface rust" - maybe in NE!!! (:p Scotty!)




    But Ely and Paintscratch.com have given us some help . . .



    Fender on, needs the clearcoat buffed out, and it will never be a great match, but my whore does not care . . .



    Valance gets done in a few days, it had some light rust (for real) to be tended to first.

    Only question now is do I paint my bumpers while I am at it?

    That came out decent... maybe I need to get some paint.

    That is not surface rust, even by NE standards.

            The car is sterling silver, I am painting the bronzit valance to match the rest of the car.

                if i where you i'd paint the bumpers and respray the rocker area with a nice sealing black paint.. it always makes the car beautiful. BTW try wetsanding the fender with very high # sand paper... then buff.



                Good luck

                          Looks like there is rust everywhere! Surface rust my ass. Poor car. At least you are resurecting it.

                          How did you paint the fender? Looks very nice and even, couldn't be a rattle can could it?

                          Oh yeah, that commercial makes me laugh everytime.

                            I just love it when they're laughing together, and all of a sudden, he takes a huge fucking bite out of the top of the candy bar...
