reedal Posted July 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2015 I think they look good man ! keep up the good workAppreciate it. I just want them to look damn near perfect. Take a whole lot of work, but I'll get it eventually At least your making the attempt at it while Im sitting here like, "Fiberglass or not to fiberglass my doors?" I like it. I like working with my hands and the learning experience of it. But it's time consuming and you can't rush it. As much as I try to. And I while I haven't used other brands yet, the Bondo brand products kind of suck if you follow their directions. Especially the body filler.

reedal Posted July 19, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2015 Also just wait till I do my doors. You'll feel a lot better. Haha I doubt it. Yours should be a little easier than mine. The fucking dash almost rubs against mine. not really sure how to avoid that Quote SMD Tool Map https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/193176-smd-tool-map-new-november-2014/ Build log https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/197217-reeds-03-tahoe-hat-sqaq-singer-xs-shca-cockbox-80prs/?page=32 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fyerbyrd22 Posted July 19, 2015 Report Share Posted July 19, 2015 (edited) use uvc2000 in your resin and your resin will dry in like 5min in the sun...then use sonus matter body filler...quickest, lightest filler out..blows away rage gold...will LITERALLY cut your time working on those doors down to a fraction with that combination..with those specific pods, u could make like 5 sets in a day Edited July 19, 2015 by fyerbyrd22 1 Quote personal build in progress http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/188656-2013-kia-sorento-6-12-no-wall/ www.facebook.com/TurbulentDesigns Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reedal Posted July 19, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2015 So the other night my cousin opened my glove box.... We found this.. iPhone 5 I got in 2013 sometime. I got the 6+ in March of this year and the 5 is just my music source hooked up to the 80prs. I leave it in the glovebox and have only taken it out a few times to update some new music. I guess it lives a violent life of vibration in the glove box in order for the screen to come off like that.

reedal Posted July 22, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2015 I thought I would share the process of me debadging/destriping the body of the Tahoe. Wheel-well trim Wheel-well trim removed, I used a card to peel that adhesive off Found this little guy chillin while I was doing the front passenger side Bye-bye Then I started on the stripes just below the windows Two drill batteries dead by the time I got this far on the first side All "erased" Took it to the car wash after to wash all of the eraser dust off and it needed a wash anyways. Tomorrow I plan on starting the black with chrome trim on the doors. After that will be the Chevrolet and Tahoe badges on the fenders and hatch. At some point I'll take off the roof racks Quote SMD Tool Map https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/193176-smd-tool-map-new-november-2014/ Build log https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/197217-reeds-03-tahoe-hat-sqaq-singer-xs-shca-cockbox-80prs/?page=32 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reedal Posted July 23, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2015 So on my way home today, some fucking asshole on the interstate decided to flick their fucking cigarette into my passenger window and I didn't realize it. I got home and now there's a fucking hole/burn in my passenger seat. But anyways, onto better news. The Tahoe is officially debadged! Minus the emblem on the grill of course. Side panels on the doors (is there a specific name for them?) Passenger side off All tape and adhesive removed Pulled off the name tags. Three "hoes" and a Chevy later Next appearance item should be the roof racks. Not really sure what to do with them when I take them off though. I guess take them to the local landfill. Anyone need some 03 Tahoe roof racks and two third row seats?
