Photos of first stage.

These two show the bottom edge how it was with the approx 20mm deep leading edge.



Then part cut out


Then part back together


Then as it will be with the beginnings of a protruding leading edge.

That was only using filler to glue the bits back together and start the shape of the leading edge.
Next stage will be to glass the rear and glass over the filler on the leading edge.
Not quite decided how far I want that to protrude so its suck it and see for now, which is why I'm building it up in filler as I can easily sand it back.


Once that bottom section is finished I will then put the single slat in the two outer vents and fill in the indicator/fog apatures.

Good progress, don't envy you though, my cars currently going through lots of filling and sanding in preparation for whitenoise. I always over do the filler and give myself too much sanding to do!
