Sandblast rust on front fender extension, front valance panel, then body fill pits

//Sandblast rust on front fender extension, front valance panel, then body fill pits
I used the sandblaster on the front fender extensions because it was a bit rusted. Then I used body filler to fill in the pits that the rust made. I now realize it is best to just buy replacement parts for these because they are only about $40 each.
{CAPTION}The front valance panel had some surface rust also. I used a combination of a wire wheel attached to a grinder and an orbital sander to clean this up. This part is only about $70 so I’d just order a new one and save yourself a few hours of work
