You'll be working close to the paint while doing so many things you just need to be careful.. and realize now.. there will be a small scratch and chip at some point. After its back together and on the road swing by your paint shop and they should look after them for you.

Again it looks great!
Thanks for the advice. I'm the paint shop so I'll have to look after them. Downside is I'm doing a 3 stage paint making it even more difficult to repair.
