damn, that car is slammed! looks great man, sorry about the stupid bucket. but think you are re-painting a bumper versus replacing the hood/fender/ door / or whatever else may have happened had you hit the other car or snow bank

Post yeah

exaclty what i wanted but its got a painted one on it underneath so im stuck until i do a full repaint.
i asked my body guy to it and they started it and noticed that there was one painted underneath so they had to put it back back there where the antenna is. sucks dont it.
