Today since got my car back the work started i did it all myself cut myself loads but i wanted to give it a bash let me know what you think

Fully stipped down ready for morretes

Fitted arch again and flatted down (also another angle with lights out)

The metal inner arch work as cannot fit plastic inner arches (this is my first ever attempt with metal was pleased with how it came out as am going to fiberglass over smoothe and spray same colour)

Half smoothed in

And the ninth hour of my day the morretes

Will be doing loads more tomorow and over weekend

What you guys think?

I think the bonnet will spoil the overall result, but you're doing well

i've made the combat arches wider before, cut around them an inch from the top edge, pulled the 2 bits apart and used fibreglass matting to join the 2 parts back together but wider apart, added about 2 inches to some a few weeks ago
