Default Painted hinges and muffler today

Just used a wire brush on the drill for the muffler. Hand sand paper the hinges. I think the doors shut better now then from factory. Any other questions just ask. Hope the pictures did justice for the task

Naw it was super easy. Just get a wire brush for your drill or you can do it by hand. Just get the dirt/rust off and also to scratch the whole thing up and clean it with soapy water let it dry then paint. Don't even have to take the muffler off.
