Molding body kit to rest of body seamlessly..

[krott5333]

How do most of you mold the body kit and body together? After installing it, do you just bondo over the seams, with body fill, or seam sealer, then sand, and paint???

just an idea, but maybe you should let a bodyshop do it. that's how most of the best cars come out.

You use a mix of bondo and fiberglass, but if you drive the car on a regular basis I would recomend that you don't do it. IT WILL CRACK!!

What we do is, Install the kit, and we use Fiberglass Filler to fill the seem, then Plastic filler over that, and then do a quick skim of Glaze Coat, of course there is countless numbers of sanding inbetween etc etc, but Like someone else said leave it 2 us professionals.

More then Likely if u do it wrong, ur shit will fall apart in a few days and crack like a mutha ####er!

molding a body kit to your car is stupid, what if you crack the front bumper or a side skirt? your screwed, dont do it, let the seams be there, they dont look bad

coming from someone with a 93 n/t....

2 be honest, just mold the side skirts and clip the bumpers. It is the best bet for a daily driver.

what does having an NT have to do with it? If you noticed this is a NON-performance forum. I wish you turbo guys(not all of you, just youvegotrice there) wouldnt rag on us NT guys just because we dont have a turbo(going to go turbo soon anyway) anyway, I agree, mold the side skirts if you want, since they probably wont be scraping anyway, but leave the front and back bumpers unmolded
