    looks brand new store bought .Did you pick and file and / or use a shrinking disk ? Or some other process?
     
  5. LMAO, I often chuckle at what folks say here on the board, but this one really cracked me up ... thanks! =)

    Been to your shop and am truly amazed at your work. Your a inspiration to us all. The bad thing is we guys that like to do our own work cut you out of the process of making a living. Sorry about that.

    I use the shrinking disc primarily. I don't use a file cause it removes metal where the shrinking disc doesn't.

    Ive got everything patched up and both pieces are ready to be put back together. But before I put them together I sprayed a self etching primer on the bare metal.

    Anyone think there is a market for a fiberglass roadster rear clip to mate to the sedan front door post? Seems like a shame to cut up a 5 window.
