eddie please dont take any offense to this but instead of buying anything else i think you should take care of what needs to be done now. IE: painting front and rear lip coloring side markers painting mirrors and sidemoldings and handles. once you have that stuff done its going to change to look of the car form cluttered to clean. you have a lot of work into it right now but there isnt much that is finished. start in one place and finish it then buy more stuff and finish that otherwise you end up looking like one of the cars we always make fun of that is totally mismatched. you have nice parts and its not too over done but finish the work youve started then move on. i hope this doesnt sound like a lecture or anything. i just like you car but i think it could look much better if things were finished, mainly paint!!!!
i'm waiting for an air compressor & a nice day out so i can paint. ****in winter ...

i've painted lips before but this is gonna be easier cause i'm going to have to repaint the whole bumper since the silvers do not match up at all.
have you done the prep work before??? it can be a PITA and is very time consuming. i see a lot of guy that try to do this stuff themselves and end up fuggin it up bad. just make sure you get a good primer and make sure you sand it down after the primer and then sand down the color after you paint before you clear. then sand after clear as well to get rid of orange peel left by the clear. i learned alot from my neighbor and man that shyt isnt easy at all
meh i guess ill post one of mine not to good of a pic its off my phone cam.
