Haha, thanks XXX. I'm hoping that the side pipes will conceal most of the battery cover, but I plan on painting it flat black just in case. The Camaro I'm building is going to need it, too--especially since the stock ride height I went with exposes the entire thing.

I'm not real impressed with this putty, so I may try some lacquer-based fill on the remaining imperfections. The one plus about the putty, though, is that it etches into the plastic for a better bond.
