if you can do ask a welder to weld a plate fill it yourself then have someone paint it . welding it shouldnt cost more then 60 bucks

I would say more like 10 bucks if you sand/grind and otherwise prep the area yourself.

Im very VERY glad I learned to weld. It's key.

But no shaving on my e30.

there you go.
iid never pay 280 for any one to remove my antenna. what im trying to say is that if you look around you can find a good deal

I'm going to be getting one of these when I finally have the body work done to my car

yo.. here's a pic of what was under the paint where my antenna was shaved...

this was not a particularly good example of body work, but the filler is of course expected. (yellow stuff)



fwiw...
