I'va always prefered to hold off and install everything right before paint, but sometimes it isn't always feasible. Like when we did body work on Mayhem the first time, because we would only have 2 days, then she would have to be driven, then 2 days off, etc, etc, it ended up that way. But she's even worse right now. I just need to get some preimer and paint all of her for right now till paint.

Haven't posted much, I'm going to paint the hood myself.
My brother's done a automotive painting before so he'll do most of it. I didn't say this before but VFN was nice enough to prime and sand the hood down. They normally don't do this and they didn't do it to my last hood but I guess they like me. I'm still going to put a couple layer's of primer on and sand it myself just to feel safe though.
