Hello, I am the proud new owner of this 2000 Jeep TJ. The paint is in good shape with a few exceptions.

I am willing and able to do body work (first time) but I wonder if someone can tell me by looking at these photos what should be done?

For example: there are rust "spots" in the creases. Is this normal? Does it need to be fixed? How?


Thank you for any input.

Overall,given it's 12 years old,body and paint is pretty good. From the pictures, the only one that's of concern to me is picture #3- with numerous bubbles. Behind each one of those bubbles is a pin size hole right thru the sheet metal. you could grind it down and apply a layer of "bondo" over the area, but it will be a short term solution only. It'll break out worst again. Only,cutting out the bad sheet metal,and weldding in a new piece will give a proper repair.
