Mine aren't fiberglassed, just smoothed and painted. This the look you're going for?

Here's a pic of the dash piece.


Here's the door handle pieces.


On this piece I WILL be fiberglassing.

I'm cutting out some flames in cardboard that will go the width of the car and glueing it to this piece. Then fiberglassing over it so I'll have a raised flames look.

First I sanded mine almost smooth with 150 grit...took forever with that grit but I didn't get much in the way of deep scratches. Then I sprayed with filler primer and wet sanded smooth with 400 grit. The sanding went thru in many areas...not a bad thing tho. Then I sprayed with primer sealer and sanded that smooth with 400 grit making sure not to sand thru it. Then paint, wet sanding with 1000 grit, then clear coat, wet sanding with 2000 grit, then buffing and waxing. Some pieces I sprayed color coats over and over again to get it thick enough so I cold sand it smooth without going thru. To do the pieces I showed pictures of (2 door handle pieces, gauge surround, radio surround) I charge $300. If you can send plain pieces back to me, I offer a $100 core refund. If you're interested PM me. Swat

P.S. I still need door handle pieces for core-refunding and I offer this deal. If you send me two sets, I will finish your set and send em back to you free of charge. (You only pay the shipping) My payment is only that I keep one of the sets so that I can do core exchanges for future service. I need ALL Camaro pieces, so the deal applies to the complete set.
