My Rocker Bondo/Bedliner Job

Here is a project ive been working on this week. I had some pretty big holes in my rockers from rust and some bad bubbling behind the doors, I was planning on having it professionally done but I just dont have the money so heres what I did.

-removed all paint and rust in the affected area with a wire brush cup (i got an attatchment for a power drill)

-hit the remaining rust with rust resolver/primer

-Used bondo glass and fiberglass cloth to cover holes and rust

-Sanded bondo then painted the lower side of truck with herculiner bed liner

-Painted wheel wells and underside with rusoleum rubberized undercoating

And heres what it looks like as it sits, with one side finished. Best of all, supplies didnt even run me 200$. Id say thats a tad cheaper than taking it into a body shop. Figured this might give some of you some ideas about tackling your own rockers. I plan to finish up the other side, and paint my grille insert a flat black to really make it look clean on a budget.
