Ram promaster 1500, rear corner replacement. The factory layering is such that this panel is buried between numerous adjoining panels. Makes removal slow and painstaking Marriage pics of the new corner to come image

I present to you, GM code 618G. Here we see the various chips used to direct a painter toward the best matching variant. Why do none of the cards look like each other, or like panel you ask? Because fuck me is why 🤣 image

Fun little mustang bumper two tone job. Sometimes for the cleanest lines, you need to clear the part between colour applications and re sand. A lot more work and material, but great results! image

The details matter. These small foil strips are absent in the new rear cover - this car's blind spot monitor system uses these for strips to 'ignore' the bumper. If theyre not in place, the system might 'ignore' the car in your blindspot instead. Never thought i would have had to know this working 20 years ago

Saylor on the cover of forbes alongside the other greats lile elizabeth holmes and sam bankman fried. I know forbes has had covers of people that *didnt* explode whole markets. But the comparison has to be highlighted.

A little bit of thw short wave heat lamp (ie. sun of krypton) does some work on a primer spot before sanding. This helps to ensure complete cure of the products under the paint before refinishing. Keeps shrinkage and dye-back at bay. image
