Friend body shop buddy, took her in last week, pulled the bumper, sanded it down, repaired it,sprayed it,changed out my 2 milky white fog lights for brandy new ones (i supplied) and 1 side marker light that was cracked from a stone also (i supplied)

He then moved on to my front passenger door which had some sort of road kick up rash/scratches that had been touched up..
He sanded then down,primed the bottom of that panel and painted it..
(looks new)

Then to the rear passenger quarter panel which had 2 "dime size" bubbles when you pressed on them rusty water came out, as well as a "buff through" spot by the rear window..

He disc sanded the bubbles and was happy to report it was just a paint issue that had allowed the water under there, the metal was solid.. So sanded the entire quarter, did the primer, and then painted the entire quarter....

Rubbed out the whole car and waxed.........She is again smoking !@

Glad to hear that the baby is getting the care it deserves. Don't think that you're supposed to wax fresh paint for at least 30 days though. She's gotta look great. How many miles? Silver Birch is the best!
