They look great. That was a full day of getting into awkward positions to get good coverage I’m sure. Hopefully you can plan for a day of rest tomorrow. :thumbsup:

Well it's confirmed . I am paying for it today . Everything hurts and fell like I ran a marathon . But it is done for now . Very little dust in it , but every time the breeze die off the bugs landed and had to go around with tweezers before next coat . Need to make some sort of spray booth for next year. Parts went back into the shop at the end of the day to be baked off for the weekend at 80 F .

Those are looking fantastic. This thing may actually end up better than new!
