No skillz just fill er with plastic
Some time back I was smacked in the side by an idiot and the repair shop
told me they would fix it right by replacing the metal that was crushed (
the door post on drivers side at the back edge of the door was crushed
accordion style )
The day I brought it in they said they were going to pull out the metal
then use a polymer metal finishing compound (bondo) I told then get f’d
….. Once the metal is Bent it is weak and that is unacceptable unsafe and
not what my insurance is for …. insurance is to return you to the place
you wereb4 the loss not cheap lazy shoddy workmanship
Back in the day of true workmanship they were called lead sleds for a
reason …. lead is still available and works great just don’t breath the
vapors

This guy sounds just like Kenny powers.
Jagwire? I think you mean Jaguar.
eh…. i always herd that you don’t finish edges with body filler? I’m
confused…
This seems great for a show car , but what about the driver ? Plastic
filler seems dangerous on edges , I realize he used fiberglass filler but
then plastic over that , thoughts ?
I rework my seem gap after watching this video, excelent tips. Here is
something funny though I ask one latino dude if my prime car(grey) if it
look good. He said no doesnt look good it’s not black. Well duh man its
prime and not paint black to match yet.
out of curiousity, how much does it cost to get something like this done?
As an Aussie I find it amusing to hear a guy in Tennessee talk in
millimetres and call a hood a bonnet. We call them bonnets and most
Americans insist they are hoods lol.
Great Tip…Thanks For Sharing!
I seen this a few months back and just finished gapping an entire
mustang,it went from a nice body to top drawer. I can not wait to squirt on
the black cherry and block and buff it,you should inform people that to do
this it takes a lot of bondo on an entire car. Even new parts need work to
look right and aftermarket parts need more work than factory,great vid
panel gaps when that jag was built was 1/4 to 1/2 inch terrible build
quality in the 60`s
mud it up
Awesome man!
Great video.
Thanks!
Very handy tip but – ”JagWIRE”?
so much body filler on that car..
If you desire a show quality painted product, this is a necessary and
unavoidable process. Most of it will be sanded off and placed in an
appropriate waste receptacle.
Nice tip
