They are shaving the gas door and relocating the gas filler neck. Marinetex is being used to adhese everything. That **** is like concrete, I'll have to take a sledge hammer to knock those 1/4 panels if I ever want them off.

My car is going into the paint booth in the next few weeks, and it would be cool to have an idea of what I am going for when it gets out. I am running Volk GT-C's on mine....Weld's are for pussies.

Marinetex?? I need to tell that to my friend.. One of these days, I'm going to go wide and definitely need to consider using that stuff. Also, does it have any flex to that, Marinetex stuff?? Is it hard solid when dried??

The marinetex cost me about $120 to glue both quarters down. Here is a picture of it.

UPDATE:
Davinci Motorworks got one Feed Quarter Panel molded in today. It looks super clean and flows pefectly with the stock lines. They were able to mold it without using any putty, AMAZING WORK!
