Looking good, Can't quiet work out if your front roof spots were on a light bar or direct into the roof? I need something to connect mine to.

I like it, I like it a lot.
Maybe the orange isn't everyone's cup of tea. But, it would turn my head. Smart job, mate. Well done.

Sanded back the old paint which was 2k and had gone orange peel texture when applied so sanded it smooth. Filled with Alli filler and grinded back areas with rust. Primed over the filled areas and then treated the bare steel with red oxide. I used a compressor and gravity fed gun to apply around 5 coats of 'full dip' which is similar to plastidip, a spray on vinyl. Got it from a company online called 'mattpack'. Very easy to use stuff, seems quite durable and fast drying, heard a lot of good things about it but this is my first time using it, I have only painted using 2k in the past but this stuff was super easy. Self levels pretty well if you go on harder in some areas than others and drys with a slightly rubbery texture. Hopefully it holds up well!
