Ok so im thinking about doing a wire tuck under the hood and bondoing all of the little holes, bumps, and cracks. Now the problem is this will add 5-15 pounds. My car is a all out race car, not a show car. Are there any benifits, besides the look, that this could add? What are your thoughs?

 

if you're adding 5-15 lbs of bondo you're doing something wrong.

 

i dont think its that worth it because its some work to do it and since ur car is pritty much a race car. i dont think u will benifit from it other than looks

agreed, maybe, maybe 5lbs worth. 15 seems pretty rediculous. The only benefit i can think of, is you'll be able to trouble-shoot any wiring issues you may have quickly & easily b/c you will have redone most of the underhood wiring and will be really familiar with routes and locations. Beyond that, this is mostly a cosmetic enhancement.

 

15lbs of bondo! wow, thats alot, Just put stickers over the holes...

 

did you say holes??? Whip out the welder bro. use as much metal as possible. all the work will be worth it. and if your car is a race car...this shouldnt matter.

just think how lame it would be to see bondo cracking under your hood a year from now... just my op.

 

thats what i ment 5-15 lb including thin metal for holes... there are some big holes. And my buddy is helping with the wireing, so i think ill just leave it alone, except 2 big holes in it.

 

be a man and weld the hole and grind them down, bondo is for covering imperfection.
