1) How do people do like custom imprints and and designs that stick out? i.e. club names in body kits....

2) When you install a body kit and format so it looks like one piece w/ your car do you use filler or glass?

there are still ppl on here that have open-minded knowledge that expands to body's. perhaps that's why they added this part of the forum "Interior/Exterior Enhancements"

Partyin...= are you pretty decent with glass? How much of a gap do you have to fill?

most do it with fiberglass filler, as far as molding the kit to the body and raised designs, if its a show car you'll prolly be ok, but a daily driver almost garunteed to crack, this is due to the fact that those body lines are there for a number of reasons, 1. ability to replace parts after a crash, 2. vehicles flex especially uni-bodys, any import! Havent seen a daily driven mold job that hasnt cracked somewhere! at least not in my time.

that's very true. you surely wouldn't want to fully bridge all the gaps. The ranger shouldn't flex quite as significantly as an import tho.

so would it not be worth trying on a daily driver ranger? and how do you do the raised stuff?
