Fixed my ground effects yay!

I just thought I would share some of my handywork with Wal*mart fiberglass and bondo.

I bought this 84 Z28 with a few issues one of them being the ground effects on the passenger side were pretty munched up. So I pulled off the panel, reinforced it with some fiberglass, used a whole tub of bondo (sanded most of it off), then primed and painted it in dupli-color ford metallic blue.
