That looks so good! I need to get off of my butt and start molding mines. Can you offer any pointers on how the shop blended them in (the process, fillers used, etc...)? I have my glued on with 3m panel bond but I am unsure on how to go about blending it in. I would just drop mines off in Florida but money is tight. I want to do as much of the bodywork I can myself.

Sweet.
Question: How did you remove the window trim/molding? Did you just trash them and will put on new ones or where you able to remove them without destroying them?

Saw the car in person this weekend. The bodywork is top notch there is no doubt..

Jessie thanks for letting me take a closer look and explaining the small details on how the extra filler panels were trimmed and intergrated on the door and bumpers.

Super nice car, pics don't do it justice.
