I got it back last night.. still some things I need to do, like put the rear bumper back on, light covers, ect.. even though the lighting sucked last night, I still had to take a picture and post it. I should be getting professional shots this weekend hopefully

Looking good. Be very careful putting the bumper back on. It's too easy to let it slip a little and scratch that new paint. Perhaps you can wrap up the ends temporarily with something like bubble wrap and duct tape.

The paint look good from I can see. I have to admit this part of a restoration process is the most satisfying and yet the scariest for me. The fun part is putting the bumpers, trim etc… back on a newly painted car knowing that you are nearing completion. The worrisome aspect is hoping you don’t ding or scratch anything in the process. Take your time and cherish this phase of your car’s renaissance.

black panasports actually.. I think my friend will be able to do a photoshoot with it this weekend..

Install the bumper with a friend. It's easier. :) The car looks awesome!! I'm in the same boat with my paint... keeping it looking perfect is tough when you're putting all the parts back on.
