Daves dash trim from an FC
Dave gave this to me with cracks it in and glued on pieces... nothing a little bondo and fiberglass couldnt fix...
Keep in mind, this thing is such a piece of **** that even when i was trying to FIX it i kept cracking it as it would BREAK in my hands...
Problem:
Cracks- poorly fixed by gluing them back on sloppy (previous owner i think)
bottom right portion is missing a piece, had to fab up a duplicate
Weak.
Solution:
Sand down and fix unleveled sections from the glue
Fab up corner
coat backing with resin to strengthen it
sorry no before pics...
Fiberglassing

Bondo

Bondo/primer/sanding... (i think this is in order?)

I sprayed mine with the same paint I painted my car with.
If you want it to come out smoother try putting a few coats of black on it, let it dry, sand it flat then spray some clear on it.
Or use one of the textured paints they sell in a can.
