Title: Shaving the turn signals Post by: louisb on June 08, 2008, 00:47:41 am Spent some time practicing shaving the turn signals on a spare German '65 fender I had in prep for doing the same on my '67 fenders. They should not need any filler but I do need to finish up with some hammer and dolly work.
Filling the stud holes: (http://images.thesamba.com/vw/gallery/pix/448075.jpg) First hole gone. (Sorry for the lousy pic.)

It is good enough now to prime with high build primer, no bondo needed. But I will work it a little more. (Just ran out of juice for today.) (http://images.thesamba.com/vw/gallery/pix/448079.jpg) I have been practicing this stuff for a couple of weeks and I have to say I have much more respect for people who do this for a living. Damn hard work. --louis |
