that finnish is straight out the gun, it hasnt been flatted, compounded or polished yet.
and before anyone says its a poor colour match, its perfect, the bumper is dirty and the paint used came out the same tin

Weldings pretty easy to do in theory, dunno about welding stuff like chassis though... How hard is painting with a spray gun? I got a compressor and I wanna give it a go...

only thing bout welding is it can be easy to distort panels etc...
as for spraying, not that difficult, just make sure the paint its the right thickness. i didnt have any guidence as my dad who was gonna help me was at work, so i just guessed, lol.

Yea, when welding bodywork you gotta use a low power MIG welder, or you'll go striaght through it and bend everything! Not too fun
