Fresh 2 tone job. I can't really see anything wrong with it, so my thumb is up.

Im going with the new front air sleeve brackets that are out and Im making my own rear brackets with a single bag. I already plan on cutting out the front strut towers and raising them and the entire rear. I just dont have a welder right now becuase I sold mine in Va and need to get a new one.

I will be making it sit on the ground with the stock body when Im done.

ah, you're in NJ now. Do you have your shop? Can't wait to see your xB all finished. I deamed up an idea for paint for mine the other night. If I could draw I'd draw it up. Instead it'll be forgotten.

WHAT DOES IT MATTER :?: What's the exercise in pointing that out when just a few posts up the page they say IT IS NOT COMPLETED AND THE PAINTER WENT BACK TO WORK AS SOON AS THE PICTURES WERE TAKEN!?!

orange peel is removed at the end of the painting process - the painter WASN'T DONE when the shots were snapped.

Quit being a troll. Read the whole damn thread, then make a stupid comment if you still have to.

i hate that bondo got such a bad rap...
it is a very usefull product if used right.
it is only ment for shallow fills and does wonders for straightning out the lines on a car...

the car in the pic was done right... metal welded on then a skim coat to fix any small problems....
