Thanks for the info boom, I did not even think of looking at the gauge to see what it was doing when I was pulling the trigger. man, sometimes the stupidity hurts :hillbilly: I have to find a place that sells scrap metal so I can pick some up and practice. does anyone know what gauge metal the OG stuff and cheap repop stuff is?

You might check with a bodyshop near ya and see if the will give you a junk fender or hood to practice with. I know the guys here at the shop do that before tests and what not

Just one more thing to do this weekend, beg for scrap metal from body shops.

I have also been messing with BugSelecta and came up with this. it the "333 Bug" Same great evil with only half the calories :D
Image What do you think, Too much.

Top colors are silver with red interior (like Porsche or Mercedes combo), a dark graphite like above with burgundy or ox blood interior (BMW colors), and for something completely different Seafoam (I like the greener one and my wife likes the blueish one).
