Not at all. I will post up another write up in the Fiberglass section on it. I have some pretty cool tools I use. I should probably patent them  ::scratch

Oh ok I thought it would be hard to put lines like that back in and getting even depth.

What do you plan to do for the molding or trim pieces that go on the door since you blended in the lines? I would have thought the lines stay there and the areas get painted black.
thanks

I think your talking about the body lines that seperate the black with the color of the car on top of the door?

Either way I filled those lines because my door shell had to be tweaked to fit right and I am going to have to re-establish the line with my dremel tool and some light sanding. Just a matter of getting everything lined up.

I had to order some new shocks since the ones I am using work perfect now but I am still about 10lbs shy of the final weight and after attaching a 12lb weight, the shock lacked the strength needed to lift the door.

So I seperated the upper door from the lower one and attached it to the door frame with some 3M Body panel adhesive. I needed to establish a body line so I tapped off the roof and layed on a few layers of glass on top and under. I havent attached the windshield so I will establish that line when Im ready:
