You might need more than sand paper man. If you use paper is use some really course. I'd use a bidding wheel with one of those tough paint stripping wheels

well from the pics i see it looks like a clean start, the drivers side fender gap gets to big at the top though.

what are your future plans on it ?

80 grit on a orbital sander will take that off...im going to assume that it is rattle can so there is prolly a diff color under that flat black. so i would sand that down to the orignal color then go from there.
