Looks good bro. Awesome idea with the drain cleaner. I'm going to try that myself I think. Nice progress on the rest of the car as well. Keep it up.
 
you need to be carefull with the drain opener

I put two containers in a 4in pipe and that was way too much

about one container for every 5 gallon bucket is about what you need

I really need to bring my camera to school I have the car with the doors off and the hood and trunk off

painting the door jams tommarro in class
 
I just got done taping the door jams off for paint and here are some pics of the color

Looks good man. I'm usually not a fan of the orange / copper colors, but I like this one. Nice warm tone, well done
 
what do you guys think of the spoiler

currently I am working on the bumper covers

I got them in primer and was not happy with some of the work so I went back at them.

Looking good. Reminds me of my auto body class back in high school. Except we really never got the pleasure to be able to work on our own stuff, I did however get to paint my spoiler and deck lid. Never liked sanding that epoxy primer lol. Spoiler looks good, popular spoiler to use on gbodys.
