WOW! How long did all this take?
 






about 6 hours so far.

kind of hard to picture it on the truck i guess, but think its gonna look nice?
 






I know nothing about the stuff you're working with, but that looks great so far. I think it's gonna look pretty sweet on the truck. How long till you can put it on... or are pics of that coming?
 






i'm waiting on my special sauce to dry. after sanding it for an hour or two reapplying the sauce and sanding again i should be able to put it on.

don't expect to have anything painted or looking finished though until spring! i'll have a primered bumper, a black grille, and a white truck all winter...
 






Whatever. The salt will make it all look one color anyway.
 






Is that Duramix?
 






its a mix of fiberglass resin and bondo
 






Ah yes, good idea. An ideal sanding surface, yet it is very strong because of the resin.
