Anyone doing anything different? Vinyl, Aluminum, lights?
My center panel is wrinkled a little (see the gap along the top of the bumper top?)and I don't want to spend the $$$ for the bodywork-it's a little beyond my ability.  The estimates I have gotten by a couple of "mobile" guys was over a couple of hundred bux. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) I just need this done and I am ready for paint. Options: 1) Find a reflector or something else and cover it up. 9suggestions) 2) Just finishing prepping the car myself and tow it to 1Day or Scheib (how much should this extra work be?)-don't want to get taken. 3) Have the mobile guy do it for $200, finish prepping the car-paint the car myself using the "roller" method and Rustoleum Professional. Future tip to others: Get bodywork estimates/repairs while the car is running-before you make it naked. thx Gary |

When I was doing airbrushing on custon vans and trucks, I was doing murals on
alot of small panels, glovebox doors etc. And it would help to hide the inperfections Just a thought.. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smoke.gif) |

Paint it black and install a small Porsche emblem over the area.

I've got vinyl stuff. You should use a little bondo & a spatula on that irregular parts, then sand it well befor you cover with any vinyl, 'cause ther reflection shows any irregularity.
