Did you already install all the windows/seals etc? Do you also plan to source new stickers to install throughout the body to match what came from the factory?

yes on the stickers I took pictures of what was there before sanding.
I haven’t installed the windows yet as I have been considering pulling the seals between the front fenders and temporarily mounting bumper covers with no seals and shooting one last coat of clear over entire car. If I do I’ll haul her to my son in laws place he set up a temporary paint booth and has a high quality Sikens paint gun with a large compressor.

The knat thing really could have been catastrophic if they had moved in when the color was tacky before I had cleared it. In reality it won’t take a lot of wet sanding to debug her.

Thanks! AllPro 😎 I am hoping for one more warm weekend here before the snows flys. The last week end it was warm enough.
I got already to spray the the engine deck lid, fuel door, and headlight trim rings. I had everything set up got my can of paint out was stirring it when I realized I had no mixing cups or strainers left .
