double din repair
got a couple cracks on my double din bezel and since its currently removed I was going to try and repair it. Anyone here have previous experience with that? is there a specific body filler or epoxy that is needed to repair the cracks? I am going to wrap the bezel after its repaired with 3m carbon fiber wrap so I just want to start with a smooth surface before I start the wrap. thanks for the help guys.

How are you getting the 3m to stay on? I tried two different shops and they said due to the texture it wouldn't work and it kept bubbling up on one that tried. I was thinking about sanding it?

Yes I started with the doors because they were smaller but I sanded them smooth cleaned them real good and applied the 3m with a little help from a heat gun where needed. It's sticking so far but the real test will be in the summertime.***edit if I do wrap the entire console I will be investing in the 3m adhesion promoter just because I don't want to have to do it twice.
