February 6, 2011 - Now doesn't that look better? Okay, maybe not yet. But it will. You can also see some body filler on the nose where I've patched up the holes from the the nose badge and the usual nose dimples.
Now, I should point out that I haven't done much bodywork before, and I've only painted the Targa Miata race car and a couple of body panels on other cars. This car is practice, to learn how to do it better. It's not going to be perfect and I will undoubtedly do a few things wrong. That's how you learn. Eric is aware of this - it's how he's getting a paint job for the price of the materials! |
