Keep up the good work stang8689. It looks so much better when you fill the holes instead of just painting and leaving a bunch of holes everywhere. I saw a thread about 4 months ago where the guy just put tape on the back side of the holes and than used filler. Welding is alot harder, but I am sure it will hold up better in the long run. Are you going to put the battery in the trunk and show off that clean area?

battery in trunk, got an aluminum taylor box, welding the holes is better than filling but some fillers may never crack, but welding them is the best way. I also got some hotchkis c/c plates, got cobra valve covers power coated chrome, and gt-40 intake in black, also aluminum radiator and chrome mac hoses

Occasionally you can find them on ebay, or you can get it from Mustangs Unlimited.
