Re: This is what happens when the wife can't keep a hold of the door on a windy day!

Well, I've tore down my wife's Yukon today-I've given myself 4 days for this project. I've fixed the drivers door, pulled the entire front clip, then knowing the rear bumper face bar needed replaced, I pulled everything and good grief I needed to replace ALL the rear bumper hardware as well as pull the factory hitch to be sandblasted. All rear bumper replacement parts are getting painted then undercoated....this crazy GM rear bumper rust-out dilemma is ridiculous!

Besides the rear bumper hardware I so bought:

NEW front bumper cover
NEW GMC grill emblem
NEW LH and RH signal lenses


Plan is to fix quite a few little dings, a nice sized dent, scuff/prep and shoot the entire truck and clear it....will work the clear finish up to a 3000 grit cut/buff. With what insurance is paying for the sprung door, I have enough to pay for everything I'm doing and replacing-so instead of having a "shop" replace the fender and blend the door, I'm doing the entire truck! Here are a few pics:
