Some troublesome holes

[Matt2107]

What do you reckon the best way to smooth the holes left behind from a GTE wrap around spoiler and a tailgate washer jet?

There doesnt seem to be any way to access the back of the hole to fibre glass the back so I can skim the front.

bash the holes down with a hammer then spot weld plates in and then smooth over, easy done in half an hour

2 major problems with that...


no spot welder................ no welding skills

then u really need to get someone else to plate it

u could try just filling the holes with filler but with nothing behind to hold it inplace i doubt it would last (ideally u'd want ally mesh or similar behind it)

[jynxy]

why not spray some foam in there (be careful it expands real quick) then use filler to smooth it then spray it ?

yeah I think I might give that a go.

Its gonna be under a spoiler so it'll never get touched anyway.
