Here are some progress shots of my car in the shop. I'm fixing the dings and dents and rusting spots, then shooting it in a fresh coat of Mazda Silverstone Metallic (which is the stock colour)
After that, JDM tails and a 2.25" drop with B&G springs and plain ol' GR-2s.
Banged out the bent trunk lip (lower left, under the badge), pulled the badges, and attacked the trunk with 100 (by hand with a block :buck2:), followed by 220 on a D/A. Ground the rust out from the license plate tray.

Rust specks and little dings ground out, filled with a thin layer of plastic filler, then feathered out.

Another dent filled and smoothed.

Stone chips, grr. >:( Filled the big dent in my hood, almost done.

Filled the crack, what a joy.
Back at it Monday! :knuppel2:
