Bodykit Body kit What are the steps to removing flexes out of my aftermarket bodykit?
I am wanting the know what materials and methods would be best to use in removing gaps and flexes out of my "cheap" 1-of-a-kind body kit!!:-) for my 98 accord? -flex example- The Fiberglass bumper sticks out a little from the frame on one side of the car and is not flush, and when i close my trunk the other side wants to show "play" and flex as well. I have already sanded a little to reduce the problem but i kno i can only sand so much before my fiberglass becomes to thin!!! I know about bondo and some other products, whats the "best" material and what are some good methods?
You should try to get it to align as best as possible, then i would sand down the least amount needed. If you have to build some out, use fiberglass filler, i use fiberstrand. Thats really why it pays off to buy the better stuff in the first place becouse it saves alot of work in the end. Ive bought the cheap stuff and regreted it. Just dont get real thick with the filler, use fiberglass matting or the fibrestrand to build out alot if needed. Use a long sanding board to avoid waves. Spray a guide coat of some black paint and sand it off with some finer grit to show low spots. Just make sure when you apply filler the surfaces is clean and you add enough hardener, If you add to much you can get air bubles, not enough and the filler will never harden all the way.
High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles A bodykit or body kit is a collection of exterior modifications to a car, typically composed of front and rear bumpers, side skirts, spoilers, and sometimes front and rear side guards and roof scoops. There are many companies that offer alternatives to the original factory appearance of the vehicle. Body kits components are designed to compliment each other and work together as a complete design. Despite this, the mix and match approach is often seen on cars, where the front of one body kit will be matched with the rear of another, for example.

Body Kits - Taking The Car Ownership Experience To The Next Level
Body kits are the next thing to buy once you have chosen your car. You spend a lot of money and effort choosing and buying your car. You make the right choice and hope to be happy with everything. Yet for the car enthusiast this is not the end of the car purchase process, rather it is the start of it.
Body kits are a great way to customize your car. Just as one feels odd if there is another person wearing exactly the same clothes, likewise for some car enthusiasts customization that sets them apart is a must.
This customization can be aimed at some or all of the following:
The looks are changed by adding products that change the color and contours of the car.
Sound is a less obvious part of the car ownership experience but it is just as important. From the quiet drive of a Rolls Royce to the roar of a sports car, each car segment has a best-in-class sound that is music to the ears of car enthusiasts.
Performance can be enhanced in various ways. The aerodynamic performance is the most visible, but there are also safety enhancement products, comfort enhancement products and speed and control enhancement products.
Another set of products are popular because they have good practical value such as guards that protect the car and accessories that have great utility value while driving the car.
However the benefits of the body kits are not limited to the obvious ones listed above.
There is a joy of discovering oneself associated with customizing one’s car with body kits. As your choices alter the car you create a reflection of what you like and what matters to you, that all can see. This makes car customization personally rewarding in a unique way. And for those to whom perceptions matter, body kits are a great way to make an emphatic style statement.
