Just sprayed a new steel house door and after a few attempts I primed the whole thing and started over, worked much better. Ok... I will get the primer lol Probably good anyway... when I dent/scratch it the pretty blue won't show through ;D return half the greens, you won't need that many.

Haha yup. I bought all they had to be safe.. If I am priming I definitely won't need all of them.

I am planning to sand it down today and fix the fiberglass... I will spray a little to test... should have a better idea of coverage at that point... Although it's pretty cold... I may say screw it until next week

Ok... so yesterday turned out to be a nice day... got some work done. Here are a few pics of the fiberglass damage... front fender mostly Cleaned it up a bit... Rear corner Drivers side fender I sanded down the bad spots and did the fiberglass repairs... haven't sanded the fiberglass repair yet but I am sure they are not going to be perfect for now... I am not looking for a showroom finish just better than what it is...hopefully. Here are a few other pics lol windshield wipers wired in.. ghetto style for now My temporary shift boot covers so I don't die of carbon monoxide Knocking down the dirt/shine with some scotchbrites... needs more. Finally found a use for those lame little mastercraft wrenches And finally... waiting patiently for paint.

Try to trim the bottom of the front fenders a bit more flush... Them hanging down and catching on obstacles is what caused the damage initally.

Nah... not really. Rico made the original bumper... for v1 of Wilma... when it got the new body/frame, I had to widen it a tiny bit. Then Bennett added the swing out.
