      Whilst I would agree, the 2 harnesses sit one above the other and it was the upper harness I had to repair, so if that was the case the then the lower one would have been completely shot, if that makes sense.

      @charliecoco2115 depends what your trying to achieve. And what clearcoat your using etc etc. Flow coating is just an easy way to get a nice flat finishing but it won't look factory, so I personally wouldn't do it on a normal repair job 👍
