Wow I thought your car was one of the light ones. W
Well you know where to find me if you need help.

How many guys are interested in front/rear spindles in billet aluminum? Aircraft grade aluminum, strength is a bit better than the factory cast steel units and the set of four will save about 27 pounds? I have no cost yet but need to get an idea how many guys are interested. Pricing should be done this week.

i went to advanced autoparts. they have a product called bondo ''i forget the model'' which states it is used for small dents, paint chips, pin holes, and dings. it was 25 bucks. is that stuff ok or should i stick with the Metal Glaze. i will have to order it online which i do not care if i have to do that i just want the right stuff
