From what I have heard, you must replace the panel or the bubbles will come back. I dropped my car off today at the body shop to have mine replaced, it should be done tomorrow.

It will IF you use the wrong adhesive.

And I saw something in Pontiac High Performance Magazine where they also painted the underside of the new panel with something that prevents the off gassing from coming through the new panel.

Here you go... this should help....https://ls1tech.com/forums/paint-bod...-yourself.html

Just wanted to give everyone the heads up.Gm part #'s are good just that dealers are saying panels are severely back ordered.I tried to locate any .I found a dealer down in north carolina-he wanted 725.Talked him down to 675 +s&h.Gmpartsdirect wants 632 now,back on 6/3 they wanted 448-price increase BUT not in stock.What a freakin joke.
