Well as u all know, I posted up pics earlier of finding a new way to get rid of rusted quarter panels and rocker panels with eg (civic hatchback) quarter panels AND rocker panels as well. I was on a budget so i couldn't buy OEM quarter panels considering im still in high school. But me, my twin bro. and one of my friends did all of this work in our auto body shop at school to my teg. It took forever considering i only have 1 1/2 hours to work on my car everyday on the weekdays. As i was doin this i found out my moldings were rotted out as well. :l I will try my hardest to buy a car in Virginia nxt that is free of rust. Thye rust kicked my ass but i won! Check it out :)

Before w/rust



Before w/ just welds on custom cut eg panels



And now with a layer of duraglass and few layers on bondo. :) Check out the rocker panels.



Next step is to prep for paint and i chose to go with bmw #wa32 (Sepang Bronze)
Its a mix of bronze and grey. Indescribably SICK!

I bought it from a local store called Keystone Auto. Use google to see if there are any near you. PM me for any more questions.
