Great job Matt. I guess you will EVENTUALLY touch every part of that great ride.

Just to show you how busy I have been, I still have NOT installed those small parts you made me......I promise I will though.

Great Job

Heres a very brief overview. Im not good and walkthroughs though.

First I lightly sanded with 800 grit, then cleaned VERY well with some prepall. I then used a high build primer and applied 2 med coats. I sanded with 400 grit untill it was very smooth. Then 2 coats of red, 3 coats of clear. Came out very nice!!! Just remember to CLEAN VERY WELL!!!
