    update! third coat covered the run just fine....also finished the rear bumper last night...had to stop at 4am to get some sleep (had to be up early)...i work all weekend so i wont finish the rest until monday night...will complete a whole progress thread when finished. so far it is looking awesome!

    also im glad im doing this...after gettin in close with the bumpers i had several rock chips that were starting to rust...wouldnt been long before the paint began to peel and chip off...
