    can you show me a before and after look of the trim on the car? I'm noobie and don't know what you mean by this "euro look."

        Pro-tip: grind/'feather' both sides of the opening. It will give the bondo/fiberglass more surface area to grab onto and it will be less likely to ghost back. Also, let it cure for a day or so before final sanding and priming, no shrinkage!

        and +1 on rough sanding the filler before it hardens

          Hey, this is great! I'm doing this as we speak. The fiberglass is just drying and then on to (eww) kitty hair!

                    Pictures of it on the car?


                    "The Camry is an appliance, not a car. It attracts folks who have the same regard for driving that they have for washing dishes,
                    i.e. it's a necessary but somewhat unpleasant chore and they want something to make the task a little easier and insulate them from the process."

                      It held up great for 2 years until the kid that bought the car from me wrecked it. Only good pictures I have.
