                  I'm not saying the car looks like crab......it's just so so.

                  I'm a pro at paint and body......been doing it for 27 years. Painted everything from Mazdas to Maseratis . The orange peel is going to kick you in the sack later on

                      If the car had a body like yours, I would show you a thing or two about smoothing out rough finishes!

                      Keep the shirtless pictures coming, it keeps me coming!!!
                      I'll be thinking of you rubbing me with some 1000 grit sand paper on my love button tonight.

                          I used the course wood screws provided in the RD kit to secure the "hooks" onto the bumper. Filled with urethane based filler. used two wood screws on the ends for good measure.
