Cheers Tommiii...

Well since the car is gone I decided to do a bit on the bonnet, ground down the edges of the bonnet and under the vents so they sealer could bite into something :

Used the usual pop rivets to hold them in place while the sealer set but looking good so far :

The underneath just needs the lines tidied up a bit so they are even but all in all I'm happy enough...

Time to make it look original using a sanding disc on the grinder :

First coat used a 50/50 mix of filler and fibreglass, my poor garage, hate the stuff :

Ah its just something to fill in the time, looking forward to getting the car back so I can start on the wings and quarters...

I just had a spare hour last night so I cut away the underneath of the bonnet, I left the bulk section at the front for strength but also I cut it on either side, bent it back and bonded it to the skin, it now allows the vents to work properly, I will tidy it all up once I get a chance as it is very rough atm...

Fingers crossed anyways Ger, sound fella...

Haven't done a whole pile recently, been busy with other shite, was bored one of the nights so I had an AE86 TRD spoiler lying around so went at it with an angle grinder, I reckon a bit of shaping and it should look mint :)
