Hey Guys I have a 95 EJ1, black with a shitty maaco paintjob. It has some wavy sections on the driver side door and some slight indend/dimples on the passanger door. I will be painting it satin black soon and heard that every body imperfection will show if I do that. So I would like to get rid of it.

So I guess my questions is (and I already searched for "wavy" and "bodywork" with no sucess) What do I need to do tostraighten this section out before I paint it?

Also I want to get rid of the side moldings like the CX. Not shaved just no plastic **** there.

Will Post pics soon.

lots of bondo.

 

i was told that i needed to get new door skins..its not an easily fixed problem i believe

 

Bondo and what? sanding til it looks flat? Dont you have to take it down to the metal to use bondo?

 

buy new doors.

 

And that would cost? A BUNCH?

Not really. Why would you want to paint your car satin black dude? Don't do that.

 

I like it and I want to do it for the next year or so until I can get the IS300 pearl charcoal paint that I want. Just an in between job I guess. This is more of a buget job too so I don't want to waste money on a new door when I can get the SLIGHT waves out.

 

there are people that head over to dealerships that do dent/ding work on their cars. They do all of this without the use of bondo, sanding, welding ect...

they use different methods like spoons, a device like the "Dent King"....

 

So just go to a dent repair place? I'll check it out and get some pricing.

 

Another question: Would it be very difficult to get ride of the side moldings? I want it to look like a CX side with the clean indent.

Not difficult at all.

 

What would I use to fill in the holes?
