[QUOTE="Black Gold 380R, post: 16645252, member: 70025"] Hello geoffmt! Glad to hear from you sir and sorry to hear about your health issues. However, thank you for posting up and providing your point of view on this. Greatly appreciated! I have given a lot of thought to this. Initially I only wanted to fix the side stripes and the inner portion of the fenders (the area in the engine bay where the mounting hardware attaches). The numbers need to be changed and, as mentioned, below the striping was not done properly and the inner portion has overspray from when the engine bay was painted black initially. This issue does extend to the rest of the rocker panels as well. My complete rocker panel was not fixed or sprayed properly during the last go round. The stripes are not level in certain areas and there are rust spots that were not fixed properly last time and they are coming through my stripes now (I haven't gotten to the point in my build to work on these issues, which is why they haven't been mentioned yet). My painter said we could fix these issues no problem. Now, in my current situation I have sprayed the engine bay, cowl and the outer side panels (in front of the door, but behind the wheel). I have also sprayed my front valance and my stone guard. I do plan on respraying the front bumper, headlight buckets, bezels and grill support. These all have overspray or minor rock chips from driving the car before. Therefore, most of my front end has been resprayed already or will be resprayed. I have looked at how my doors currently match the A pillar, outer side panels and cowl and it looks really good to me. This Laser Red does not have a lot of metallic in it, but does have a real nice pearl in it and it really matches most of my old paint very well. So, although I am planning on repainting the fenders all together, I will wait for the painter to come over on Saturday and see what he says. Thanks again geoffmt! Hope you feel better soon sir!
