Title: from ouch to looking better
Post by: Lyndon on September 05, 2008, 06:52:08 PM

after hitting a council sign i was a bit hurt to see the damage, so a few weeks later i decided to hit the dent out & fibreglass it & then use top quailty light wirght filler to shape & i think i did pretty damn good too, from there i saw at the bottom corner a crack so with tools in havd i gavi it a hit & like a chucnk of bog fell out weighing like a kilo, under it was a dent that tapped out easy & i did the same work & from there all is great, even fitted fairlane tail lights the same day.
