is your front slam panel tatty and rusty :nono: its so easy to do and the after affects are amazing it completely makes the car look so much cleaner could even be a nice little mod with a change of colour disagree??

TOOLS:
spray paint and primer
pliers to get the grommets out underneath
a sander i used a palm sander but each to there own
lots of news paper and masking tape
rachet and socket 10mm to remove front lights and rad stay
i removed the wings 1st bolt just to be careful and masked under the wing we dont want no over spray:nono:
once the surface of the slam panel is clean and rust free its time for prep work your either ready to prime and then spray with your desired colour i went for the easy option and sprayed straight on with my hard wearing paint.. NOW SIT BACK AND ADMIRE A CLEAN LOOKING FRONT END :drive:

pictures attached :nice:
