man, i thought i was the only one that had these idea's. i am currently building a f-350 laid out. i have pics but the project is not complete. If this project comes out good my next project is going to be this colorado. I have questions for you though... what did you use to mold the rear tailgate, make the rollpan and mold everything in the box together. i have tried everything from putty to actuall car filler. im absolutly stumped, and i have asked around on hobby forum's and they are not sure what to use. thanks, Patrick.

I used "liquid metal."  you can pick it up at any autoparts store or a hardware store.

thanks for answers, but im still wondering if this stuff is sandable, and paintable. sorry to be so complicated. i just dont want to spend another 10$'s on something that wont work, just yet again. how much does this product cost? Thanks, Patrick
