Prepaint....the rear was being trimmed when I stopped by, so no on the car shots. It should be done on Monday, and I assure you will be celebrated with MANY photos!

Adam,

Looking good. I think there is nothing like the Ruf CTR body work. Congrats.

I was worried that my bumper would fit a little strange along the like of the hood...and it did. I dont think it's QUITE as noticeable as yours, but it is def. tighter on the pass. side than the drivers. I am SO excited!!!!!!!! How much did you pay for fitment and paint on yours? I am also having my fenders, hood, trunk and 1/4 panels repainted to mathc perfectly....and getting hte A-pillar treatments done....along with shaving the washer squirters...SO our bills should be similar....can you give me an idea of what you paid Steve?

I'm interested in filling up the washer nozzles (good job!), did you weld them or just filled with bondo?

I'll fill mine and would rather not weld but want to be sure if it hold with just bondo.

TIA.

Adam,

I'm not sure about the total bill... I had the roof, cowl, hood, front fenders, and both bumpers painted. The front bumper was previously damaged and needed some repairs. I also had the a-pillar fairings painted and the hdlight washers removed. The roof and sunroof was dented by the trucking company, and that had to be repaired. I also had them repair the door stop, which had ripped out of the door jam. I think the total was about $3k if I recall. My hood fits fine, btw, it just needed adjustment.

That's going to look sweet once it's done. btw, your seatbelts are not routed correctly.

How should they be routed? Oh, wait, I fixed them since those pics were taken. Do you have pics of the "correct routing"?
