Shaved my rear light panel on the 951
so last night was the night. Grinded the holes real well and fired up the mig welder. I did ok filling the holes in and took a grinder to both sides- unfortunately the options sticker was right where the holes were drilled so that is gone now. After some good grinding and sanding, filled in the spots on the outside w/ some metalglaze polyeurethane filler, sanded smooth and 
did some can primer on there. Then i couldnt find any wetsand paper - all at the shop- so i did the steel wool scuf on the primer and sprayed the area between the taillights flat black. Today i got the car inspected, got my title transfered and got a 30day tag for it. Hopefully in the next week or so i'll be getting my apporpriate tags for the car.
I talked to my dad today, he said he could tig up the holes in my bumper as well, so when i get my turbo valance ready to spray "smoke grey" i'll be doing the bumepr as well. All in a days work eh?
Also checked out my new odo gear- working very well!

Removing that panel is something i really want to do, i removed it last week just to see where the holes are. I need to get the holes filled, sanded and painted just like yours.
You might get a visit from me
Seriously though, nice job and make sure you got it ready for the 26th

- i really like the plate in the stock location, the centered plates look awkward to me for some reason. I am going to red out the ambers just like my last car- and erins- no extra reflectors for me thanks.
