    :p

    Whenever you're ready...;)

    I'm more concerned about measuring the flares properly. Installing this grill takes all of 60seconds.

    It was nice meeting all of you guys as well! It's always cool when 4 strangers can get together and have some fun mudding!

    Yea, it got me a bunch too! I have yet to wash it so I don't know the extent of the damage just yet. I don't think any of it got the paint, just scratched up the clear coat. I am pretty sure you can buff most out and then reapply a nice thick wax coat. (I don't know crap about detailing, so I am only speculating here.)

    you would be surprised how much will buff out with proper appplication. ive seen some dark colors come out just about flawless when done right. id be down for a detail day, my porter buffer tool died, as it was a little old and abused. until i get a new one, i wont be doing it by hand.

    there is a guy in this thread, chris,,,, he used to run a detail business and would be best for advice, he dont post often, but he visits enough. he would be best to recommend products, i just know a few basic things.

    Thanks, I'd like to see if he would be willing to actually work with me and show me how to properly detail versus describing it. (I work better when I see it in action versus reading about it...if you know what I mean.)

    I'll search for him and shoot him a PM later.

    Thanks for the info!

    A good detailing should get it looking flawless again.
    :anonymous: I haven't cleaned mine yet. I have some light scratches but I will be able buff them out.
