i remeber my first DIY, i wanted to get an ill fiberglass look so i bondo'ed the center console on my 96 civic to get rid of that wrinkley look it has. so i tried to bondo it in and i ended up sanding it for like a month while i drove around with no console. and i didn't get fine enough grit so it looked scratched and i cracked it anyway. looked good the second time through tho.
