RE: MustangForums rocks!!!
Update here as well:
I'm taking the bumper to the shipping terminal in the morning to get trucked to you. Your neighbor lady was really nice to talk to. Feel fortunate to live close to good folks!
About the fog light with the gold halo...I'm usually not too big on euro-style, but the gold is something different and with a gold car I think it will work well tying everything together.

RE: The saga continues
I have did some of this shade tree body work myself in the distant past.
Take my word on it,you would be smiles ahead to just replace the quarter.
As for the paint,D A sander with 320 grit,take it to bare metal and do a complete repaint.
Good luck.

Newtakeoffs is awesome!
I ordered the rear bumper from them and they easily had the best price.(they don't gouge you with shipping and handling) It didn't matter what color so I just chose one at random. They just called me to say they don't have any with perfect paint conditions and can offer me one that needs paint repair for half the cost!!! Sweet! I explained that I would be painting it anyway so all I need is one that is in really good condition overall. They were extremely helpful and saved me close to a hundred bucks.
Also got word that my rear blackout panel is on the truck for delivery today.
Last night I painted up a toy car I had of a 2005 Mustang GT in the colors I'm using. It looks great! I'll take a picture of it tonight and put it up. And if anyone with Photoshop skills feels like drawing one up, that'd be great. I put a post in the Chop Shop section and got no replys.

Sweet! I got the chop done by TxLonghorn. Thanks man!
I think it looks pretty damn good.
My honeycomb panel came in today and I got tracking numbers for just about everything else.

Are you going to paint the stripes or do vinyl?

I KNEW I should've consulted my Periodic Table! I can remember that K is Potassium and Br is Beryllium, but I forget Gold? Anyway, thanks for the correction, and noooo aggie jokes from me!

Isn't Gold Au? I forget, but that sounds right.
