Yeah it was quite neglected. Passenger side was fine but I repainted it for the colors to match. Basically just lots of sandpaper. I went P180 > p320 > p800 > p2000. The hardest part is where the old paint matches the bare aluminum. Had to redo once because I didnt sand that area well enough and the line was visible when painted
