Thanks for the compliments. I sanded it and my dad pulled the dents and painted it. We painted it in a canope that we use to put are boat in and it was about 85-90 degrees in there so it turned out good. The paint is a acrylic enamel.

So it was a single stage (meaning you didn't put on a clear coat). Looks Good did you have to buff alot?

Get with me I do paint cars on the side from time to time and I'm painting my red one Black this summer so maybe I can use you to help me do some sanding and other stuff and you buy your own materials and we could do them at the same time? Let me know.

The paint looks awesome. I also love your front bumper. Is it home brew or did you buy it?
