humidity was only 30 % so we yanked off the rear bumper and started wetsanding it. m3 bumper had been wetsanded a while back(december?) but we still hit it a little more today as well.

thats my brother laying the alpine white base coat. there was one run in the base coat but its hardly noticable, clear has a few runs, and unfortunately some dust particles but they will wetsand out.

i might stick the rear bumper on tomorrow but the front one i will let sit for a few more days. i already have the stock bumper on so it doesnt look that bad from far away, but it looks funky with no rear bumper. i know its not 100% perfect but now my bumpers will be white, and ill be able to put my foglights in too! so happy
