I saw a post on here where someone used an epoxy to attach their body kit to the car. Anyone know where to get this stuff from? I think it was called fuzion or something like that.

Once again I am not going to bother argueing with you, its a given that the screws stay in the wheel wells.

Please don't post unless you have something useful to say.

Okay people lets calm down a little bit. I don't think anyone is trying to prove something, just misunderstandings and such. One thing to remember about body kits, is that anything really is possible. Now just to clarify, I'm not talking to anyone in particular, I know Rjb23 know's about screws in the fender wells. But if someone wants to fill the holes in the fender wells. then fine, do it. There are a ton of show cars that are like that. But that's the thing, they're show cars. They are probably stored in garages with a constant temperature and have 0 miles on the odometer.

The reason why a street driven vehicle should have screws in the fenders is because as tempuratures rise and fall outdoors, throughout the years, the fiberglass on the kit will expand and contract. This eventually causes fiberglass to crack. Screws in the wheel wells help slow down this process. Eventually though it will happen no matter what, that's just fiberglass. That's why most bodyshops will not recommend glassing in, or molding a kit on a street drivin car. It will crack, and when it does it'll be harder to fix that if it wasn't molded to the car.
