What the best/cheapest way to fix a hole in the bottom of my 99 Ford Taurus?

Question

I was trying to jack up my car, but I had the jack in the wrong place.. As a result I jacked thru the interior of my car... Now there is a hole that is about 1.5 in x 4 in long in the of my car..

The plastic that I poked thru is still there but I'm sure it needs more than super glue to hold... I need something that is waterproof because it rained a lil and I could feel some moisture thru the carpet.

Answer 1

you could purchase fiber repair kit for under 20 dollars it it comes with  resin and hardener and also fiberglass clothe it a quick fix yet its strong to meet the standards for  body panel thickness and strength..

Answer 2

make sure you can get to the hole, then pop rivet a piece of metal over the hole and use some tar under the patch. works everytime.

Clean the area very well. Get water proof caulk and flatten a soda can [ with a hammer very flat]  Pull back the carpet caulk the can to the floor. Put the carpet back. Done.

Answer 5

Are you sure its plastic most cars have an under coating on top of metal if this is the case use a hammer bend back to were it should be scrape off the under coat then fined some one with a wire welder and close. If its plastic find some tin get a pop rivet gun put some good caulking between the tin and the car drill a hole through, and use the pop rivets. then with eather one put a mastic on the in side, that will dry in to a hard serf-ice, put the carpet back down and it should do for the life of the car. The fix will make the different from a bad smelling car with windows that are always steamy  back to a nice car good luck.
