the front bumper project
I went to Walmart and picked up a Dremel yesterday and started on my front bumper today. I got the nubs grinded off and didn't feel ready to quit for the night, so I started polishing my wheels. I know now it'll take forver to finish them.. <img border="0" alt="[icon501]" title="" src="graemlins/icon501.gif" /> Anyway, next is to pull it off and play with Bondo. I haven't even ordered the paint yet, (and I'm lazy) so it'll likely be a couple weeks before it's good to go, but here's my progress so far.. <a href="http://www.cardomain.com/member_pages/view_page.pl?page_id=330960&page=3" target="_blank">Front bumper.</a>

In my experience india red isn't the same as guards. I had some paint mixed up, LM3A, and it said india red. It wasn't even close to my guards red.
I would make sure the paint you buy says guards red.
