They also have some fairly heavy surface rust. I was planning to have them media blasted but am unsure of the order of repair. Should I work the metal then blast and then prime or the other way around, blast prime then work the metal. Seems to me it would be easier to work the metal after it was cleaned up. Also I listed my truck in the Gallery but I havent seen it yet.

The rust helps with the contrast. Clean it up before you weld or fill though.
