    Allen, What are the circles about? Dented areas?


    Yea they are dents or defects that will need to be fixed before sanding the car. Once the car is sanded it would be hard to find them again......Until after it was painted :)

    You just find those areas by eye?

    Trained Eye :D

    I will have some more pictures later today. Front end is apart, couple more items and I will start repairs.

    This is saving me money. Adding this to my normal routine keeps me off the classifieds :)

    Looks like the front end came apart today and the fender got some work. It was messed up!

    Yea it is. and yes my guy is rolling on primer. The EPA makes us do funny things sometimes.
    The booths were tied up so this way we can prime in the shop. That primer has been hand blocked already and the next step is to prep repaired and other sanded areas for final prime.

    More updates from today. Didn't realize how much work would be involved in this! :wow:


    "New" used drivers side door came in. A new one from BMW was outrageous so Allen was able to find a used one in great shop at an excellent price!
