#47230, "How messed up is this?"




          

I don't have pics yet, but will soon. 250 bucks after bringing in my bumper and new skirts, I get em all back nice and shiny. Had a professional body shop do them and they did them very well. Yeah I gave them the color code which is A37. Well A37 is more of a porche grayish silver. The actual paint code was A87 magenta gray pearl. My screw up...big time. Guy was nice enough to repaint them again for 100. Good thing I got em back because now I'll be refitting them and getting rid of the gaps by bondoing. You professional out there should thing I bondo or use fiberglass resin to fill in the gaps?

use glass, better than bondo. wont crack and fall off, just spider if really hit hard. (From my experience with glass and bondo).

p.s.- anyone good at paint?? I have a paint issue now. PM or e-mail me please.

glass, bondo should never be more than 1/8th inch, my wyotech buddy says if it is over 1/16th you don't have a body man working on it.
