So, after using the SEM high build primer. I smoothed out the gusset plates and complete the shave bay look like tuzzio mentioned...

Later, Burnsauto from here on zilvia, came by and did a little more body filler work on the wheel tubs and REALY made them nice and straight. They do look awesome!!!

After that, I wiped down the bay with pre-paint prep, and sprayed the 2k Filler primer. 3 Coats and i let it sit a couple days to cure.

I didn't take any photos of the mid-coat And I ALMOST didn't spray it since I liked the look of the basecoat/metallic in it...But i'm glad i did because it adds just the right amount of pearl/flakes on top of the base-coat. I put 2 coats of clear on.
