Looks good Erik. You should sand the surface rust off those dogbones now and paint them. ;)

Lookin good, that alternator looks hella nice, its new imagine that :icon_lol:

One question, why exactly did you only wax the hood and trunk?

Prospeeder

Well, my Trunk i had to use rubbing compound to get the scratches off, so natrally you must wax them, and my hood, i dunno, i wanted it to be extra shiny, lol, im clay bar and waxing the whole car after i get my valence

Thanks for the suggestion, ill do that! What grit you think, start with like 600 then 800 then 1000 then just keep them wiped down after that? On my wheels i started with like 300-400 or somthing, but they were a wreck! And just the outside square part? or how much should i polish?

I would just polish the edges of the tips around the outlets unless you want to spend a lot of time on them.

^Shitty picture, but you get the idea. It's supposed to be nice/sunny here the entire weekend, so I'll take some good pictures of them then.

EDIT: 600 grit to start with should work great.
