Albert, Can you say something about the process of hanging, shimming, fitting the front sheetmetal....and what steps you took to avoid paint damage.

Thanks

Chuck, I use lots of tape, paint sticks more tape, patience, and lots of hands..really is a gruelling procedure as one slip can really set you back..hardest part is getting some of the tape back off!!!.

Looks fantastic! Looks like you really went the extra mile to achieve correctness on the various finishes.

Magic work Albert....very inspiring too! . On the removable tape thing, always keep some cheap brand tape around and let it age so the stickyness gets weak....not the good 3M type stuff on paint surfaces unless a color break or stripe edge. . Sticking the tape to clean glass or something else first and peeling it on and off a couple times can get rid of some of the stickyness too. ~ Pete

I run the tape over my pants first to puit a little lint on it!!! learned that one the hard way!!!..(not this car)
