this is the original hatch of my car, someone tried to break into it, and they f"·$d up the lock, so i decided to shave it.
this is wherei removed the lock, i welded a piece of sheetmetal where the lock used to be.
there where two ruts to the sides of the chevrolet logo, so i decided to shave those as well, and i got rid of all the badges.
here i have everything filled with fiberglass filler, the weather here is great, so i didn't have to wait long for it to dry...
after some sanding...
and more sanding...
body filler!!!!!
and yet more sanding...
and plaste.
i have already finished the project, but it started to rain a little bit and i didn't have time to take anymore pics; but i'll try to post them tomorrow. after all these steps i just wetsanded till smooth and then painted.
please tell me what you think.
i hope everybody is OK. BIg Up NO!!!
