Paint beginning

Fellas,
Here goes the paint. The JD Blitz Black will be in this week(satin black) and then it is on! Taking care of trim because i am bored. I am posting all pics on my webs.com page. Ill include a link. Wish me luck, should be fun. Thankfully i dont have much prep work to do, just the usual dings and stuff. Best part of this paint is that if i dont like the "murdered" look, i can just gloss clear it later. If done correctly it can look great. Below is a link to the grill work i did this weekend on my spare time. Oh and the pics are crappy iphone pics so bear with me till later when i get the canon out. lol.

Paint!


Oh and the bumper has to go thanks to some idiot behind the wheel! lol. not sure if i posted that, what a mess.

That color is actually quite a bit glossier than the satin black I use on my truck, I think it looks very good on the grille. Too bad for the bumper tho, seemed pretty shiney!

That's the gloss enamel for all the trim. The body when complete will be the satin. I am diggin the results so far!! The bumper was a dang tragedy!! It was in nice shape and would have been nice in gloss black
