    Time for a shave

    so, my car is almost stripped and awaiting a few choices. i know i want to shave the door moldings, question is how. weld the holes, fiberglass them etc. end result i want to look like Jordans set up. also color, i cannot decide between hennarot, carbon black, or cinnabar. the entire car is being painted interior + exterior, engine bay, trunk.

    Not sure on the shaving, but I propose Carbon Black metallic.

        I agree.

        As for shaving, more metal less filler and glass.

        Sold it.

          I didn't notice you wanted to use fiberglass.

          For a perfect look, you must use metal wherever possible, as he stated.

              It all has to be welded and ground down if you want it to look decent. Henna or carbon; depends on how much attention you want.

                hrrm still thinking, carbon or henna
                for the holes left from removing the side trim, can they be welded, or will the panels warp, i wish jordan would chime in and spill the beans on how his were done.
