Hey shreddedtire82, Looks good so far. To fill the door and tailgate handels, just get a piece of kit sprue, and a large file. Shave off some plastic from the sprue, get a good size pile of shavings. Then put the shavings into a small container and add some liquid glue and mix until you have a kinda thick blob of melted plastic. Use something like a small screwdriver and spread it into the holes, let it dry, and sand it uniform with the panel. its cheep and works perty good. Make sure to ruff-up the area your filling, so the filler can "Bite" into the plastic.
