i have my body kit on but i want to mold it.. i just need to know if i can go to schucks and get regular body bondo to mold the fiberglass to the body... i heard i have to buy a special kind of bondo for this... otherwise should i just go to the store pick some up and go to work?? should i sand off all the paint before spreading?sorry for the lame Q.. but need to know thanks in advance guys.....

 

I have yet to seen one molded body kit that did not crack. Dont do it.

 

this may sound harsh but drillholes in the kit and counter sink the holes for the self- tapping screws. screw it to your car, take all the paint off where ever you mite bondo. You can buy a tiger hair bondo which has strands of fiber glass in it,bondo over that and the slite indents your screws left behind. Top it off with some iceing. make sure to sand each application.and find some stainless steal flat stock and measure,cut and bend to bolt the bottom of the effects to the underside of the car

 

Do not use regular bondo! I got my car painted for cheap at some crappy paint shop and the painter was working on some civic there. The guy used bondo to mold all the body kit, fill in all the dents and he filled in the drain thing on the roof. I told him it was going to crack for sure on the roof cause the car flexes. Well he didn't listen to me. 6 months later I went to a different body shop to fix a screw up from the original crappy one I went to. And there I saw that civic again. I walk up to kit ALL of the seems of body kit that were molded to the body were cracked. All of the roof wair he filled was all cracked and a huge chunk of bonde had come off the fender. Moral of this story is don't use bondo to mold parts, fill in big gaps or on parts that have to flex.
