Passing out reps soon

Sorry for the recent sabbatical I took. I spent over a week repping a bunch of DIY and useful posts that I should have repped a long time ago

I wanted to put the putty on the back and front for more a filled type job. I'll do the front side first and see how it holds up.

You shouldn't need to sand the backside. The fiberglass on the back should be plenty rough for the putty to adhere. There are lots of nooks and crannies for it, too. Shouldn't be an issue. If you really want to sand it, just do what Fire said, and make sure it's a light sanding

Hoping for good results Pint. I feel your pain, I'm not a body person and any type of sanding, painting ect. scares me. It took me 6 months to drill into my 370Z's trunklid for the rear wing. Turned out perfect but still worried me.

It's too bad the delta wing is having soo many issues. In the last race the motor had issues. They should take out the V4 and drop in a twin turbo 3.7l V-6.

Sounds like the US auto industrial carries the heritage of their product from generation to generation....
