Good tips matt, keep em comin . One other thing that came to mind after reading matts tips was that any spot that you fill with putty is hard as hell to hide after the fact it will show right through the primer and paint. Keep the number of holes to a minimum, i used countersunk screws to hold my subs together and then filled with body filler and if you look close even after highbuild primer and paint you can see where the filler was used. The average person would never see it but i know its there and it bothered me for quite some time.

DOG is GOD spelled backwards.
What others think of me is none of my business.
