Having one helluva time finding Bondo stage 3 locally. Is that a thing right now?

Walmart and HF both show it in stock, but neither had it. All they had was stage 2.

Amazon says:

Today, I found a new Honda 4 wheeler, actually, it's a 2018, with no miles. Been in the garage since the new purchase. I snatched it up for 3200 today. Saved money and got something new that isn't in the showrooms right now. Nothing in our shops in Anchorage but 2 Suzukis. Both were over 10k, so I passed. $100 a month payments at 1.99% for 34 months. Not a bad deal.

That looks like it might need a plow on it, AK!

Good morning thinkers!- nice little four wheeler, AK!- ( needs some mud on it, though! )
White, i ran in to the same thing on my old ‘76- the original had a spoiler ( it was a cobra2)- it had access holes drilled in the underside with holes drilled for the mount.- the lid i put on was from a straight hatchback so i had to lay out and drill the holes. it turned out well enough.
The junk is still falling apart around here!- gotta run- stay safe at your salt mine guys!

Since I bought my first ATC110 in 79. Then went to the first TRX in 85. Yeah, I've been on these things for about 42 years. They are invaluable up here to get into hard-to-reach areas that are built up, just for these, bikes, and side by sides to get into.

They do tend to f with my back, but this Honda has a great suspension, so it isn't nearly as bad as my buddy's Suzuki 450 King Quad. That thing tears up my back and I can't walk the next day. Too heavy and too big to comfortably ride and steer.

I went through the scrap heap at work, and I think this'll do! About 4 X 6 and 1/4 thick.

EDIT: It is 8.5" X 6.5" X .25" and was 2 lbs. 13 oz. Pretty decent chunk!
