I always encourage people to never "cheap out" on projects like this as the labor involved in going back in to undo the corner cutting is worth more than you actually saved in the first place. And to those who would respond, "I'll be doing it myself so there is no labor cost....", yes, there is is what acountants would call "opportunity costs", the value of what you would be doing otherwise if you weren't back under the car again. Do it right, do it once......
