I got this laptop like this for free, technically .. i did some computer work for him and i wanted this bad boy.... anyways.. its an aluminum casing .. and i wanted to fix the damaged end of it ... I was thinking of using jd weld... or epoxy ... i would have to make a mold of some sort for that to work thou ...

I was wondering what you guys can suggest in order to fix this diy style!

just make a mold of the good side and reverse engineer it

lol I have the opposite corrner damaged on my 9300. I decided not to fill it in with bondo because of where the damage was would prevent the chasis from being opened in the future which I just wasn't so down with.
