    looks like a nice job....just a few questions though. Not trying to be a jerk or whatever here....but going through all that work...why did you not pop out the tail lights and the lock on the gas door or the drivers mirror and passenger dummy cover?

        Nice Job!!!! to paint the bumpers, The best thing is to go to your local auto parts & pick up a couple of cans of Plastic bumper Paint,use that as a base coat after a few days do a wet sand with 1200 grit,wash of all the dust & then get Enamel color of your choice & spray about 3 coats,i recomend doing it on 65 + degree enviroment, if you spray smooth enough you should be able to even to buff & wax them after 6 days, Good Luck,Ride is Looking Good, Cheers!!!!

          well...this brings my next question....which account would you like to keep? We only allow 1 login so 1 will have to go. Let me know if it is tigerrudes or BEASTS'TIVA.

            Those wheels are beautiful! What size are they, and are they aftermarket, or from another car?

                            There's a ton of orange peel on the paint. I hope the wet sanding and buffing take care of it before you find primer What kind of paint did you use? The hood is looking good!

                              the color of the paint is ebony, i picked it out of the ford paintbook. i will ask the painter, what kind it is. he has one more day of sanding and buffing.
