Coming along good! But how come you didn't take the lights off?
I might do that today, yesterday I was just sanding the big easy areas, today Im gonna do the more detailed stuff thats harder to get to

Awesome build. It reminds me of all the stuff I'm planning on doing to mine

Thanks!

spent a good 7 hours sanding today... sanded all the small detailed areas by hand, did a quick sand over the hole truck again to make sure I got everything, sanded the bumpers(not thoroughly because ill be replacing them soon anyways) sanded the grille and shaved the ram head, used bondo to fill in some small dents. gonna sand down those areas tomorrow and clean it then start taping and possibly painting
