Console Lid Progress
Tuesday, June 20, 2006 12:06 AM
Well, I got it glassed and some bondo put on. I've been sanding for the last couple of hours.



More sanding.

I've gotta get it taken down to 600 grit, then put on some glaze putty on the whole thing.

This is my bezel, I recently sanded it back down. Filler primer will be next unless I find any gouges or so on. I plan on putting my screen there (obviously) and moving the cd player someplace...there's another thread about that if you wanna help me decide where to put it.



Woooo bubbies.

Yeah, mine had the holes underneath the vinyl also. Plus, I wanted the real fiberglass look. I'll get some pictures up when these two projects are finished.

looks like your doing an okay job but for that just some filler in the holes and sanded smooth would have been fine. thats how i did mine and its going on 4 years without an issue, and u dont need fiberglass for the smooth look, just a smooth surface to paint is all you need.

I thought about doing that, but it didn't have a lot of mass without the vinyl. I wanted to thicken it up and some weight to it. Makes for a better result in my opinion. Anyway, I'll get some more pictures up soon.
