Getting Closer

Houston was graced with it's first fall-like day on Saturday. I took advantage of the weather to work outdoors on the MR2. Todays task - prep the front bumper for painting. Here's what I started with..


Lots of peeling and spider webbing. The previous owner simply painted over the TOYOTA sticker letters, rather than taking the time to remove them!!

I took the lettering off! I'll replace it with new letters when I'm done with the painting...

I got the cover to about this point with 80 grit paper, before switching over to 220 grit wet paper to end up with this..

Sanding out the cut outs for the turn signals took some patience...

The final product...
