I did ALL the sanding by hand...I was afraid of the power tools at the time...I mean, I'd just started workin on vehicles, so I was a dumba$$ newb..and I mean realllly dumb

It's immaculate...but Dan's got some good spotters...and a lot of experience behind him so, I am thinkin  there will be minimal damage

[Geno]

[CTENG in KS]

Damn bro, that thing is so perfectly grey it looks like the pics are black and white!
Kool...
I would have busted out the orbital sander for that skank...I used one for 2 straight years doing nothing but yacht paint jobs...I am like sensei master of the sander 

[crawlerdan]

thanks for the compliments, i sanded it by hand, cause there was alot of small dents to block out- and the color is a combo of 2005 toyota grey and my immagination, its a one off. i like it

[RHG]

You know what I like about sanding...the paint dust boogers! Eww. I repaired a fiberglass cowl hood to put on my Camaro and I blocked that fawker forever. Primer...block...primer...block......Zzzzzzz. But it sure payed off in the end cause there was no tell tale waves that fiberglass is known for. Smooth as glass! But really you need to rustle up a few more inches of lift and stuff some half worn 35's under there cause I'd hate to see some damage on that flawless bodywork.

itll be fine, i got some mean bumpers and sliders, just need some protection for the fenders

[Hyena]

All you need are sliders and bumpers.  Unless you take the hard lines, you shouldn't worry about the fenders.  But if you want a little extra protection then go for it.
