Default sandpaper anyone?

MY car is almost ready to be painted. I have the moldings off and the holes will be welded up and smoothed out and all emblems shaved and removed. I will keep updated pics posted.

I wish................I am getting a new hood so didnt bother to mess with this one. Its got "crows feet" in the paint and would be too much trouble to try and get it in descent condition. If I could find a good deal on a CF I would though.

I am not changing the color of the car. Its going back black, the only difference is that it wont have the flake in the paint like the factory. I am going BMW black, anyway the sanding isnt finished yet. The guy doing my work has more to do on it but I needed the car this week to drive.

^^ BMW Jet Black is the nicest black around, nothing cleaner and more crisp IMO.

It looks like it's going to be a nice ride...
