She is at a performance shop for stangs today as she doesn't like to run very smooth.....

but I got to do a little TLC yesterday...

Got the hood and fenders wet sanded and buffed.
Got the hood scoop installed....

Painted scoop, hood grilles, cowl, window trim, wiper arms, front grill, headlight buckets and headlight/grill bay area....

I am fixing 2 small cracks in the air dam with SEM bumper repair.
Need to sand and recoat 1 more time.

Used SEM Charcoal and SEM Black Trim


Then all the trim will be repainted...

Thanks....she is back to normal!!

There was a short in the main harness to injector #2 and it wasn't getting fuel. It also took out the ECU.....guy in Milford Ma, CE Racing fixed it from me at a GREAT price!!!!!

I am so happy...she goes so good now!

Looks great bro!
Gotta love SEM paints. It's a great product.
Where did you buy your paints?

Are you repainting the air dam with the sem, or are you getting it painted at a shop?



Posted by: Capriman86

I get all my SEM and paints at a local shop in Milford MA call B&T Autobody Supplies.

I will be doing the whole air dam with the SEM spray bombs...coats so well!

I have used SEM for interior redying, fog covers, etc....works great!


These are from a past capri

Little humid out today so I had to stop painting.... brought
it in the garage with the dehumidifier and a heater going...I was able
to finish. Used SEM Charcoal 39153 Bumper Coat.

Got the tail light buckets just about done.
Little more to do on the drivers side to meet my approval.
That will be done tomorrow.

Tail light ribs will also be painted tomorrow...just got to mask them up.

Both doors are repainted and the lower lips have the rust removed, and new seam sealer applied.

I will get better all around pics once she's done....his some garage pics for now.
