So I am going to start test fitting panels before sending it out for paint and body work. I have some questions as I have never had to start from basically scratch like this:
1. Once I test fit panels and get them gapped nice, how do you mark them to be sure they go back in the same place after paint?
2. Do you have the paint shop put the panels back on or do it yourself? They can touch up any damage right there and then after all...
3. After I get some of the used panels acid dipped, do I have the dents and such fixed then or move on to test fit and wait until it goes in for paint for the repairs?
4. I think it's ideal to have everything off (doors, hood, fenders, etc.) when getting paint but how necessary is it?
Thanks
