I did but I like the easy of foam, both the application and shaping is great and takes very little time, also if you make a mistake you can fix it quickly.

Cost wise I've used £70 in foam so far, I buy in bulk on ebay. I think it will be around £100 total for the whole car which isn't too much at all.
