[QUOTE="Black Gold 380R, post: 16629440, member: 70025"] Okay, then I focused on my stone guard. This one was in bad shape. First there were burn marks on the paint as I needed to cut off the mounting tabs and reweld them in the correct position to fit on my new radiator support that I installed. Then it appears the last body shop painted this part on the car and could not paint it properly as this part sits under the grill. Here you can see the passenger side burn mark and a line in the clear coat marking where the original body shop could not clear it properly. [ATTACH=full]1706697[/ATTACH] Driver's side of stone guard. [ATTACH=full]1706698[/ATTACH] As they say there are plenty of ways to skin a cat. The way I like to handle these kinds of issues is to sand out the chip, nick or imperfection and feather it out. [ATTACH=full]1706699[/ATTACH] Driver's side...... [ATTACH=full]1706700[/ATTACH] I primed the whole thing, wet sanded it with 600 grit and then sprayed the basecoat. Passenger side. [ATTACH=full]1706702[/ATTACH] Driver's side........ [ATTACH=full]1706703[/ATTACH] Here it is in clear. You can clearly see the orange peel here. That's okay. Cut and buff will fix her right up. [ATTACH=full]1706704[/ATTACH] Driver's side.
