thanks cobra...any ideas for my truck? i have removed the "factory body kit" and plan to bondo in the rear part near the tailgatethat is a big empty spot. and some other body stuff but to make it look better, sound better and run decent, with lttle or no problems is my main goal.
((why do i think cobra lked the link to the ford truck forums???))

thats my plan as well...the rockers? lol 500 degree engine enamel...from autozone...and same brand for clear coat...use lots of clear...
if you use the enamel make sure you dont wait more than 15-20 mins or so between coats or you're screwed...the enamel turns to total crap if it starts to harden. i think its cause if the ceramic in the paint...just pant it all at once...black then like 2 or 3 coats of clear... sued a " can gun" it helped alot.
