For mounting the body, is a body reamer a must or can I just use a drill bit on the inside of the body?

I'm also conidering using gorilla glue to mount 4 of the plastic washers on the inside of the body for support.

Tips techniques would be great. Thanks

Jade

I use a body reamer, worth it if you do alot of bodies. I always mount the body before painting, easier to line up the posts thru the clear body. I also trim the body completely before painting.

You might want to experiment with the glue on a scrap piece of painted lexan. The glue may soften the paint and it would look nasty from the outside. I use thick vinyl sticker on the inside of the body to stop rub thru. I have also used the foil tape that a/c guys use to seal up ducts, and it works great, very difficult to rub thru that! Plus you can get it on a rool, instead of having to cut up the vinyl.
