Yes. Talk to your paint guys. 2000 seems way too fine. Paint may not adhere. I'm not a paint guy. Take advice at own risk. That is all.

edit: take out fog lights. Minimize **** that gets masked.

more edit: door handles...etc. you get the point.

Yeah.... devide your grit by 5.

Final sand primer with 400 prior to paint.

Prep the **** out of it too with final wash. Pull door handles, as well.... i regret not doing that.
