looking real good. Just out of curious.. how long has your car been sitting there that it looks so dusty (maybe this is a dumb question)? and also isnt it bad if your primer gets water on it... being so pourous and all? (maybe another stupid question)

Thats in my autobody class... gets dusty everyday.. and i blow it off everyday. lol.

I painted the parts in the paint booth, and 2 days later (today) i took them inside to to regular shop and i had to go outside... and it was raining.. If the primer wasnt dry then it would be bad... but its all good

thanks

Good to see somebody doing it theirselves. I painted a good deal of my own stuff in my autobody class as well. It was fun because me and the guy who was my shop partner would get done like 10x faster than anyone else. Our shop teacher would have us taking apart people's wrecked cars and working on customer's cars (our school would paint cars for people). That was my favorite class ever!!
