quote: it is quite hard cos the welding can warp the door, but filler usually solves that. yeah its basicly what you said, you can get a plate welded in for about £10. then fill, smooth and prime yourself then take back for top coat. youll need a door popper kit tho | |

what is involved in the smooth door handles? cos i may consider doing this myself! is it just a case of welding a plate in the place and angle grinding away the edges, then filling and smoothing? obviously not as easy as it sounds, but do you have to get a slight curve on the metal and how do you get it right? | |

i want to go for the euro look and i have already got some chrome effect 15s with the wrong offset:mad: and coilovers dropped 75 front and 60 back. i now want to go smooth. is it worth getting my door handles smoothed off and how much would it cost? another thing i definately want is a smooth boot, any estimates on prices without spraying? |
