I am working for a contractor who is re-wiring a kitchen. Nothing is being added (just updated) except being an old house we are making it compliant to today's code, such as putting in 2- 20 amp countertop kitchen circuits, etc. The 100 amp neutral bar is full. Any problem with adding another? I assume it needs to be bonded to existing one, any other feedback, suggestions?

I would add an equipment grounding bar and move any EGC's from the existing neutral to the new grounding bar. This should free up some space for your new neutrals.
