hey guys
pulled the moulds out today and trimmed them up, and smoothed my fuse holder, but the bonnet hits it so i will have to lower it a bit no biggy and i think i want to put a front part on so i probally will. i would have got more work done today but i had a mass hangover and i cant do much with out materials :( cheers guys! this is what i wan it to look like but all of it about 1-2 inch higher so that its not sitting down below the boot line! and there is a amp in the middle but i havent got it yet |

Very sad to hear that mate, but the best thing is that you're turning tragedy into a triumph by your dedication...
