school been keeping me busy and the fact that I am not painting her yet has not been a priority for me.

i do plan to do it after school finishes in 2-3.

If i do sell it to you its going to be at the same price that I bought it for with shipping from japan lol, but I'll get'r done lol

the ladder works lol. and this is my first time doing it so i am far from a pro. i seen them do it on smaller holes but using the screen in metal it helped keep the shape. just think liquid nails but a little flexible, once cured its solid.

you can search the web for SEM 39767 i bought it from http://directbuyautobodysupply.com. once you see the container you will see that a special dispenser is needed. i found mine on ebay here is what it looks like

Nice progress! Im sure it will look great when your done.

Nice work Rich, glad the SEM worked out for you.

Guys, this is the same stuff I used when I shaved my JDM license plate pocket. I actually cut a piece of bumper from another car and then used the SEM product and metal mesh to bond them and fill in the gaps. The only thing I can forewarn you on is this, prior to priming/painting, let a body shop bake the bumper in the paint booth for one or two heat cycles, if any of the SEM product didnt fully cure, it will produce bubbles in the plastic material. I didnt do this, and the bubbles came up when my clear coat was curing, needless to say I had to strip the paint and re-fill the pinholes from the bubbles.
