Finally this morning i have applied the final amount of filler to level up and fill any imperfections ready for a final sanding and then smoothing up in readiness for the plastic primer all depends on the weather  :sad: as to if i can get it sanded etc tommorrow just have to see  :rolleyes:
so today heres the progress.

managed to get the airvent cutout levelled up and also at the top two edges slowly but surely getting there  :laugh:

Looks like your nearly on the home straight dude!

Reading through that thread the other day, it looked a bit of a nightmare - how easy have you found it?
