Started the process of rock chip repair yesterday. I should have taken some before pictures. Couldn't believe how many chips were in the front bumper. My bodyman came over, mixed up the paint for me and helped me out. I didn't bother with the fangs, because we are going to paint them flat black along with the front lip install. So we just concentrated on the bumper. There weren't many on the rest of the car at all, luckily. We are going to let these touch ups harden, then go over it one more time to fill in any of the low spots from a couple of the bad ones. Then he's going to shoot several coats of clear on the bumper/hood/quarters for me to thicken up the paint and make it nice and tough to prevent further chips.

I'll get some pics up of some of the process and the finish product when we are done. But we might not clear it till we actually take the bumper off and install the lip. I'll do that as soon as I stop driving it for the season!

stay tuned......
