Re:
OK I wasnt going to post any more pics until the ef meet but you cant see much in this pic anyway so here it is-
Just as a test I decided to spray the sides that I had to repair to see what kind of overspray I was putting in the air. It looks like I can spray the rest of the car in the driveway without overspraying nearby homes and vehicles. I just hope nonone calls the EPA on me lol!

Re: Re: (mekanism)
Can anyone show me how the EF9 round fogs are mounted? Have a set now with the surrounds and bracket that goes around the foglight with bolt, pending purchase on the new EF9 front end (with cutouts for the round fogs), but have no idea how they're mounted haha. I heard from a friend that the bumpers that had the round fogs have provisions for mounting the fogs? Or are there brackets that connect the brackets on the fogs to the bumper/chassis?
Help me out guys! Pictures of behind the bumper with fogs mounted would be a big plus. Thanks a lot!

Quick answer:
Don't even worry about it. Just set those round fogs aside in a drawer or something. If you plan on getting that Red front end from me you will be all set. The round fogs require a special Bumper support for mounting purposes. The round fogs in most cases can only be used on these front beams because the brackets are welded on. Thats why when you see people selling them on eBay or something they usually never have the mounting brackets, because then end up remaining on the bumper support.
I can find picture real quick but you personally have nothing to worry about. See you Saturday
The fogs are not mounted on the frame of the car, they are mounted on the bumper support itself

Haha, yeah I know what HVLP is, but you can still get alot of overspray if you crank up the settings. I had the pressure set at 20psi at the regulator but with hvlp you are only getting about 10psi at the tip. I just dont want the neighbors to get pissed at me!

We will see how it turns out.
So far I'm liking my $100 spray gun set. I bought a 2 gun set, 1 for primers and one for topcoats. The guns I bought are knock offs of SATA guns which are in the $400-$500 range. I was looking for a ROTA inscribed on the gun somewhere but I couldnt find one lol!

So would I if my car wasnt blue! That's the reason for the test spray on the doors. I wanted to see how far the overspray traveled. My girlfriend's truck was parked only 25 ft. away and it didnt get anything on it.
