Default Re: Replicating Factory Spot Weld Appearance

Mike, I would be interested in seeing the results using your vice grip approach.

Bob, what method did you use to get those results?

A couple of ideas I had were to either use a round punch and hammer or to use a flat end drill bit and just lightly scratch in the circle before prime/paint. I wonder if anyone has tried either of those tricks.

Also, just an observation, but it seems like (at least for the 2nd gen birds) the Van Nuys cars had a smoother, more finished off wheel well lip than the Norwood cars. Anyone else into these cars notice this?
