These things look fantastic. And I'm impressed how good this outer gasket looks. And the stripe in the middle of the lenses.
Amazing.

And damn how fast you work. I'm just baffled

And some more:

Driver side fender extension in epoxy:

Now in surfacer:


Fender bolts and shims:


Panel under the seal plate epoxied:



And both door hinges were blasted granted some of the old paint was still on there but the glass bead wouldnt hardly touch it so i left it. But its been prepped and epoxied. New bushings installed. Good as new.
