unfunnyryan Posted July 10, 2010 Report Share Posted July 10, 2010 So in june I was in a minor accident with two possible illegal immigrants. They spoke no english, and the only real words I could get out of them was "no police." Nuff said. Fuck em, my car did more damage to theirs than they did to mine anyways. Here is my bumper right after. The paint took quite a beating and is chipped in some areas, but the trim is okay. The paint honostly doesn't look awful but some of the scratches are deep enough + the chipping means I have to sand it down and get it all painted. http://imgur.com/MD2WTl.jpg So on to getting it fixed a few weeks later... Hey bumper..what are you doing there all alone? http://imgur.com/CKGT9l.jpg Oh god thats not a buffer WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON http://imgur.com/JKcH4l.jpg Scratch? What scratch? All I see is a lack of scratches (and paint) http://imgur.com/bSsjEl.jpg Thats all for today. TOMORROWS AGENDA: Prime, paint, clear coat, reassemble.

unfunnyryan Posted July 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2010 I need to do the Audi. Thanks for the motivation! Weathers nice, and if I can do it then you can too. Better hurry up though, weather says rain on monday and all throughout the week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unfunnyryan Posted July 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2010 Last night I got started on the priming, out of boredom. http://imgur.com/stTUel.jpg These colors don't match at all http://imgur.com/0i1Ibl.jpg Today led to MORE SANDING, which of course led to more priming once again...and then sanding. http://imgur.com/CpHm6l.jpg Enough fuckery, time to get started on the black. http://imgur.com/48ex7l.jpg While waiting for the paint to dry, I decided to clean up some of the trim thats removed from the bumper using my proven method of smearing the shit out of it with peanut butter. http://imgur.com/vUB6ml.jpg http://imgur.com/RyNVNl.jpg http://imgur.com/F0fhdl.jpg Delicious. TO DO: Clear coat, reassemble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unfunnyryan Posted July 13, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2010 Finished it up on sunday, it was night so I didn't take pictures. Decided to go out in the rain and get some real quick. http://imgur.com/wwquCl.jpg http://imgur.com/VM5xZl.jpg It looks really good from a distance but has no shine up close. I am going to wait a bit for the paint to harden up and then hit it with some polish and see if I can restore it a bit. I still need to work on the scratches left on the bottom bit of the trim, and on the trunk lid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
