    The only repair panels installed were where the side marker lights were installed on the rear quarter panels when the car was imported to the usa. These panels were made from our own custom dies.

    thanks for the kind words, lead is more time consuming not to mention toxic. The end results are spectacular as body filler shrinks.

    All filler shrinks including that grey stuff you sprayed over your entire car. The key is product, technique and time = spectacular results. Filling an area that large in the middle of a quarter panel with anything to correct some flaw isn't the best approach anyway even if you feel the filler is the best around. Door gaps, panel joints and shaping spoilers with lead makes sense.

    Bravo Paul, but thats where 25 years of painting cars comes into play. IR lamp cooks the product on the car and we cook each layer and that takes about a day for each layer.
