Light sanding w/ 400 grit sandpaper, no primer, used fiberglass solvent wash (made surface tacky to accept paint) That's it. Oh, and lots of sealer. Oh yeah, and the indicator panel wasn't painted because it will be covered up w/ a custom shifter boot

is there anything on the removal on all of those sections on the dash?? if i could get those off it would be a breeze, but i dont know about taking the doors off and spraying the mesh..it would be difficult for me. exactly what brand/type of color coater did JPett use?? if i could find out what kind & the price per can, it will be my first major project on my car

Now that you saved some money by doing it yourself how about some rims or are those your winter rims 
new rims have to wait till i get the svt body kit on the car and get it all repainted.then comes the svt rims.
