Im about there . Put inner fender and fender on . Waiting on the bumper cover . Then i want to build me a paint booth of sorts. I laid the cobra hood on but didn't bolt it down yet just to see what it was going to look like.

The last piece of the puzzle . Now i can paint this thing. Anybody in the Charleston WV. area that wants a front cobra bumper should go see DAR automotive . Got this for $238 . Just need some foglights to put in those holes

If the clear lays down as slick as the base did ill be really really happy.

So far this little machine is kicking butt. But the clear might be a different story. Stay tuned

To those that have been wondering about the harbor freight turbine sprayer that i bought and sprayed base coat and clear. ILOVEIT. I see no need to pay thousands of dollars on a compressor and hundreds on paint guns. I do have some runs in the rear bumpert but thats my fault. I got cocky i tried laying it on to thick.

The project is coming along nicely. Do you think the runs can be wet sanded? And what size tip are you using?
