had a rainy weekend so I could only do bench work. Decided to change up my grill. As I was working on it I realized I would need hood pins... oops, so I ordered some, it will all be done this week.
My plan was to have the metal part look rusted, and then I wanted the whole thing rusty looking, didn’t like the color of the primer so I just blacked it out with more bed liner.
There is a issue with these style hood pins if you want to use them. They are about 1/4” short where I am running them. So I’m going down to fasten all today to find some m12 tee nuts to give it a little extra bite. Also waiting on my buddy to loan me the two hole saws.
