and mine was only bolted on, not glassed in like yours.
yours is looking good, belly pans are so cool!


Dat suck! This one is around 1/4" thick,and when ya mold it on it is alot stronger,when ya glass the middle 2 section together it makes it alot stronger too!! Need to slow down a little in dem fud puddles!! ;0)

Looks REAL good. I love the look of a roll pan and when it is molded in....it's even better!!!

looks great, nice work!

BTW, bondo is the worst... you're much better off going to an auto body supply shop and buying some real filler. Everything about it is better, and it's usually only like $20-25 a gallon.

I know it's a brand name, but it's the worst brand out there, IMHO. If you use a professional grade filler, it's like night and day for ease of use. Good stuff feathers out much better than bondo.
