78 f150 custom progress update
well i got some primer on and i get to start body work. I know i did it backwards (bodywork first and then primer) but it looked really bad so i just went ahead and painted it. Took a whole day but i think it turned out nice for 20$
(Here is the walk around)
This is what it looked like a week ago

That shouldn't matter. If you're willing to pay that for it you should get it.
What color are you going to paint it? Are you going back with the blue. I've thought about going back to the Jade Metallic on mine, but I haven't talked myself into it yet.

Grill shell you say?
I'm gonna suggest a company called CertiFit. They sell aftermarket body parts on the cheap. You can check their site and see if there's one near you live.
I don't know if the prices are the same in all their catalogs, but here in Atlanta, they only want $104 for a grill shell and $30 for a grill.
Just figured I'd throw in my two cents.
