Podguy - just spent a half hour visting your website. Very impressive. Only comment would be to add more pics to your outstanding examples and directions.
Are the cars listed on your forsale page still valid?
Sorry for the temporary hijack.....

Joe,
I do not think you will have any problem painting a 928. I generally strip to bare metal then use a DTM primer sealer as the base coat. After that you can use a 2K. There is a lot of blocking to do.
On the bumpers I use a SEM plastic primer to get the surface smooth. It is also a good idea to add some reinforcement under the tops of the front bumpers as it transitions to the hood area to get a smooth line. Other than working aluminum a little differently the rest is pretty straight forward.
I would strongly recommend as much disassembly as possible. Here is a link to some paint notes I wrote up a while back.
