TheTurtleshead Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 I wouldn't bother, just paint it bright OEM red to match the rest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j_jza80 Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 I would take your time considering doing this, as modifications like this will seriously limit the appeal of your car should you come to sell it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaz6002 Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 Ooooh. I wasn't aware much needed smoothing. How do you do that? Filler? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob_Mitchell Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 Ooooh. I wasn't aware much needed smoothing. How do you do that? Filler? proper way is to weld in plates and weld up the holes, grind away and smooth off with "as little" filler as possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaan W Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 I chose to panel beat the original bodywork on mine rather than welding in a double layer. One layer is as good as two and has probably got less movement too, once the main shape was taken I used fiberglass matting and resin to bridge the corners for added strength then skimmed with filler all over. It's easy enough to do just takes ages, if someone was to pay me I would want minimum £3k for the work involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
