Well, been an apprentice panel beater, and having a car full of dents doesnt really go does it? So i thought i best get it all fixed, so today, up at 6a.m and at work for 6.30, got the car repaired, and primed, got to wait untill next saturday untill i can paint it though, so for the week im driving round like this:




So on saturday, pretty much the whole cars getting painted, both full sides, need a new bonnet, got a smooth post 97 front bumper to go on, a standard post 97 rear, full new set of arch spats. Should look mint within a few weeks

Well being an apprentice, and if some of you know how hard filler is to master, you will understand why i havent done the repair, seen as it looked a little something like this before:

hope your not driving around in the wet with primer exposed like that for a week

i did that once with my corsa f50 bonnet exposed, the primer and filler starts to split away after a while if the moisture gets in under it

if its primed with 2k which i imagine it would be it will be fine as the primer seals it in!



also look like a good job, i hope you pulled it out a bit first as i would hate to see all of that dent in filler!

Thats probably because a monkey fitted the vent.

Cheers guys, it was pulled out before it was filled, and it will be baked off to get rid of any moisture before it gets painted :
