mot will be fine mate. anyone can rub filler mate. the hard bit is putting the filler on so you dont have to rub it much etc. iam getting there but still got a long way to go before its perfect yet.

the quality of the filler helps alot also

i got an idea,

i know the boot is smoothed in, however how about having some sort of systems so its not the boot that opens, but the glass,

you could some how attach the glass to boot lifters like normally, but use some sort of sticky pad for attaching it to the boot glass,

you sometimes see on some old american cars where the boot stays and just the glass moves,

that would be prety cool if you ask me,

only problem you might have is try to hinge the boot glass
