coming from this thread Unfinished detailing ------>http://www.autogeekonline.net/forum/showthread.php?t=2162

after a few posts, a visit to AG store and Pinnacle store and an achy shoulder plus a few days.

well worth the time and effort.

few more shots, the lower front bumper is really beat up with lots of small deep chips, but it turn out good. unless you really go down and look hard.

the lip of the hood has some paint chips as well. i dont have something for the headlight lens, so it is cloudy.
