Default looks great! i respect those who do all their own bodywork......

bodywork and painting are a skilled talent. it takes time and patience to do it right. yours looks good. i'll hopefully be painting mine next spring or summer. ain't bodywork fun?!

Default my car was in bad shape

it looked much worse in person than in the photos. it had only one rust spot on it, at the LF front door and that was due to a prior repair gone bad- it had over a centimeter of filler in it at that point.

The RR door was worse than that, as someone had packed it full of filler and given up on it. I spend a whole damn day tackling that door and finally got it straightened out.

The car is straight now. I am happy with the results. Tomorrow, I hit it with 1500 then 3000 then we can buff. yay!
