My car is a giant rust bucket, it just looks pretty on the outside ;) Quote Selected
Re: Birdie Update Time... Reply #18 – June 09, 2005, 12:33:15 PM So crystal did venting the hood mess up the paint or did you have it repainted after the vents were punched. Quote Selected
Re: Birdie Update Time... Reply #19 – June 09, 2005, 12:49:20 PM The hood has to be stripped to punch the louvers. The hood and Fenders were painted less than a month ago Quote Selected

It's far too pourous and it lets air, moisture and anything else in. Can't protect metal from rust like paint can. Sure, it's better than bare metal, but not by much. Quote Selected

Had to sand and re-primer a couple spots on the fender I repainted because I let it sit too long with just primer on. Quote Selected
