cool
well Some lady backed in to my Van right before the nats so i left it till i had more time to devote to the repair . It was pretty Smashed and i hopped to find a match at the Nats and scuff and paint but tht was not the case .
Anyway after i got it off i notice it was an IFG flair .
I ground out all the cracks and bad gell coating and started to glass is back together .
