We'll start drinking once the camera is out, and we're admiring our work..hahaha.

Talked to my guy who owns the wing joint tonight and he said he'd set me up in cloverly so that I could pick up 9:15-9:30 so that I don't have to get them the night before and reheat them. I have no idea where cloverly is but I have nav in the car so...

Anyway, need a final headcount at some point late next week so I know how much food to bring. Also bringing:

-Vodka/redbull to keep me going but I will share of course
-picking up cheap oven mitts from target (and I do mean cheap so w/e)
-Krylon whatever semigloss black paint sicne blades isn't coming. I will dig for his link and buy several cans of the stuff this week.
-My own tailgate chair + umbrella complete with bungee cords in case I need them.

That's on top of:
-Heat Gun
-Blue heat-resistant painters' tape
-screwdriver
etc

Its Krylon Fusion, if you're doing black.. its the Semi Gloss black.

Krylon Fusion Satin Black. The color name is right above the bar code. :tiphat:

Thats it, thanks Blades.

Yeah I'll buy several cans of it. Manual dexterity isn't my forte so taping off **** would be a plus if anyone is available to help.

I got your back bro.

It was my understanding that when you take out all the headlight components, the housing remains separate from everything else so you don't really need to tape anything off....

Yeah it looks like that is the case. You will only need to mask off if you don't plan on painting the whole housing black. If you only want to paint certain parts of the housing, then you will have to mask off the rest of it. If you're just gonna black out the entire housing, then no masking is required.

This is true.:tup:

Oh fellas, just an FYI, if you happen to forget something or need a tool, that no one has, there's an Advance Auto Parts store across the street from my house.

As long as you have a decent ratchet set, we should be good.

Yup, I got that. Im actually on my way out, Im gonna go pick up my paint and painters tape.

Fellas, I picked up 2 colors of paint for my headlights, Im gonna go two tone, its gonna look good! I also picked up painter's tape and I received my butyl rubber today from UPS!
