Thanks Sean.
I have three fascias at home in various condition but only one HJ fascia and this is what I am repairing. Its in good condition and the only cut out is the radio which was cut out more vertically to accepted an early style tape deck (so the radio knob holes are still intact). Your video is very informative and I will use this as my guide and experiment welding on the wrecked fascias first. Masking will take some time! and for the record I would be prepared to pay double that of a new repo fascia as they are not HJ ones.
How did you apply the chrome band paint, and what is the paint name?
