Hey BuggyW,
Good looking buggy ya got there.I have one of those myself.
Mine had places like that on it also...I found that the most of them fill in nicely with a high build primer.

Thanks, Johnny I also been reading some boat forums and they say alumathane primer works well, it flexs a little more so that there is less chance they won't return. its a little harder to cover with paint, two coats to blend the color.

P.S. Hope to get mine to looks as good as yours.

You can have a flex additive put into your paint, ask a reputable automotive paint vendor like ppg. Or google flex additives for paint.

NOS plastic bumpers for modern cars use the stuff.
