nicely done, better than I can do. I myself just picked up my first replacement body...... just need to figure out how to paint it, mount vertical body posts, align body to posts, make holes, etc. Last edited by barbaricboye; 08-22-2009 at 04:08 PM. |

mark the body mount holes before you paint with a sharpie pen. just put a little dot. it will turn out perfect because u can see right thru the body.

Another tip an old friend taught me is to use your body reamer and while the body is still clear cut the holes for the body mounts then paint it. As any real painter will tell you. You should get all the body work done before you spray! |
