                  I get all my parts from KND Imports OEM stuff at a really good price.
                  I pressured washed the underbody w/ a heavy All purpose cleaner and then wiped it w/ mineral spirits. Car still on jacks so I have not really tested my paint job. Hope it works I put a lot of work and effort into it.
                  The rear brakes backing plates were sanded and painted w/ Rostoleum
                  PROFESSIONAL the finish look from this enamel is amazing IMO.
                  Finished pix's from the front suspension coming soon!!!!
