Any update??? I have a silver car, and I really really want to paint the entire car white. I've never done any work like that, and I'm pretty handy. You are my hero

Finally some progress! got the front end welded up today to compensate for cutting the bumper support to fit the intercooler. tomorrow i will scuff off all the rust and paint the support so it doesn't re-oxidize, also on the agenda for tomorrow is painting the intercooler piping. Im finally getting so time to finish this thing.
