So as some of you may know, my lip was in terrible condition.So I just got fed up with it and decided to mess with Bondo for the first time. and this was the end result.

What it looked like....

And after a whole day of mixing sanding and paint and blah blah blah...

So what do you guys think?sorry for the crappy phone pics..

Great job man. Looks like new. I hope your car isn't slammed or you'll just chip off the bondo soon in a few months of driving.

I use some screen mesh stapled to the lip and shaped it to the way I wanted. and just used Bondo and sanded.

Thank you!

Thanks to everyone who said it looks good, It was my first time using bondo, I didn't expect those kinds of comments.

does look good, but it is most definetaly going to crack. I would recomend laying a layer of fibre glass over it.

nice work...but like others have said... bondo will easily crack. so will fiber glass. they should make those things in rubber.
