Here is my low dough Caddy. My Yukon broke along with being a gas hog so I needed to find a daily. My Dad had just happened to buy a newer DTS but held onto this '93 so he handed it down to me. While I was very grateful I just couldnt drive it the way it was so I made plans to "pimp it out". I had gotten laid off back in May and was unable to find work so money was/is an issue hence the saying low dough. I had some white left over white from one job and some pearl from another so I decided to first paint the lower cladding and both bumpers pearl white, A brighter shade of pearl white will follow on the rest of the car later down the road.
Here is the car the way I got it from my Dad.

I had painted the car a few years ago for my Dad and I also obtained some CTS wheels for him. He used them until the tires were wore and then put the hideous stockers back on. I picked up the CTS wheels and painted them black.

Then I started on the front bumper by first taking off those push bars. The holes where they bolted to the bumpers were huge. I filled them with panel bond and then sanded. I do not have a welder..

After sanding the panel bond I finished it with putty and rimed.

I also blacked out all the emblems and grill. I tinted all the lights.

After that I started on the rear bumper and side cladding. I removed that bar thingy attached to the bumper with the reflectors and found many holes needing filled, ugh didnt expect that!

Here it is as of now. Ive painted all the cladding and bumpers a white pearl (green). I will be painting the rest of the body later on keeping it a brighter white on top but with the same green pearl.

Here you can kind of see the green flop.
