Yes you can use a mig, all you really do is spot weld. I dont think people would want to lay full on beads because it would distort the metal to much.

mig is perfectly fine. acutally better in my opinion cuz you gotta fill those spotwelds and grind em down anwyays.

hopefully
well if you do decide to do it, and anybody that has done it, please post pictures, I'm buying one soon, (a RHD conversion car) but how is it done right? where there isn't flaws like someone said banging when you go down a drive way... what's that about?
bump for all those people who did this

its really a tight fit... you have to squeez or section out the whole entire front clip and tack it back together...
what i did is section out the fender a bit... and trimmed the upper dash about half a inch and cut the bottom a bit... because it wasnt the stiffest part and im just gonna tack it back on...
i gueess im fabbing my ****... but at least i did it my self... LOL ill take pix later...
