not really.... except that the spoiler mount gaskets that I ordered from The Fiero Store showed up...
I will be working more on it this weekend.... I started school again this week, so time has been very limited -------------------- You CAN sleep in your car, but your CAN NOT race your house!!!

heres the scoop on the swap... I am getting closer to done now that I worked all weekend on it. we finished all of the bondo prep yesterday and layed two coats of primer... this morning before school I layed a third coat of primer, and today after school I layed a layer of black enamal down... I figured that three coats of primer and a coat of enamal will keep any rust from forming.... BTW I wet sanded the primer with 800 grit between coats.
here is some pics with the bondo done and the primer on... will post more as the process continues. enjoy, Ben

here is the final outcome of the spoiler swap on my GSX... at least until I get it painted to match the rest of the car... there are 3 coats of primer on it with wetsand at 800 grit between and 2 coats of gloss black enamal with 800 grit wetsand between coats... next spring it should all be blue again.
enjoy... also let me know what you think of the last pic
