Spoiler and badges gone now all better
Alright so months ago I removed my spoiler and all badges off the trunk. Well I had quite a few holes there from that so today I took care of them.
First I grinder away the paint.
Then mig welded the holes (plug welds)
Then ground them down so they were down a bit
Da sanded the trunk with 80 grit
Then put some filler in the spots and sanded it again with 80 then finally with 180 on a long board
After it was all smooth raddle canned it with some primer sealer.

Uh oh.... Do you I see project coming??
I like the look of the badges myself, completes the look of the whole rear end area... JMO
The filling, sanding, and primer looks great. Always nice when the DIY comes along just as you want it.
I might have a R154 for sale...... HINT......
