I have a reamer too, but I personally don't like it. I find myself using the drill, dremel, and knife way more often. As far as cutting the holes first; sometimes it's easier to mark the holes before it's painted since you can see exactly where the body mounts and antenna are. If using a body meant specifically for your vehicle, that's not a big deal since there are little nibs showing where to go...

I usually do them afer painting - although every stinkin' time I swear the next time I'm going to do the body post holes first....just never happens.

For the larger holes, I use a stepped sheet metal drill. They work awesome, but they are quite pricey.http://www.irwin.com/irwin/consumer/...rwinProd100146
