Priming and painting the exterior is only half the battle. This is one of seven tables full of trim, brackets, bezels, bumpers, window frames, and other parts that had to be processed. We had more than 200 hours of prep and paint time in these items. Much of this can be accomplished at home, or you can pay the body shop--your choice. We also chose to paint the bumpers, grille, and trim instead of rechroming--a choice that can save you money, but only if you do the work yourself.
