The AFTER/Primered Page
UPDATED!!!!
Newest pics on top.

Theese are pics of the car after all the body work done and primered. I primered this car so many times it wasn't even funny lol. It had to be done tho to get a nice base for paint due to the shape of the old junk rattle can job that was on it when I got the car. I primered it after the bondo work was all done then wet sanded w/ 220. I found other spots that needed attention like low spots or bad scratches from sanding the body filler off. So I then either applied a small amount of body filler and then spot putty or just glazing and spot putty if they were'nt too bad. After doing that I reprimed the car then once again wet sanded w/ 400 grit paper this time. Found the rest of the scratches and other places that needed to be worked out a lil better so I refilled them w/ spot putty. Mainly due to being rushed to get done and excited to see it al primered, and due to the spot filler shrinking a lil over about a week or so after it's first applied so that's the reason for goin over it so many times.
Better quality fillers won't do this but when you work on a budget you gotta go w/ what u can get and afford.
On the other hand being your own car you want to be a perfectionist alot or at least try your best to make everything perfect the way I did.
So on he final primer I wet sanded down w/ 1000 grit and she was ready for paint.

Theese are the pics of the 2nd homemade grill for the car. The first was made like a tube grill and didn't look all that great so we got some mesh and got creative and made some ram air screens, grill and some matching park/turn light covers.
