Holy smokes, that colour rocks even more than I thought it did!

Been working a bit more... Got a little bit done, but I'm tired and have had enough of it for now. Will pick it up again in a few days.

Scuttle is a bit more smooth now... Layered it over with some more fibrefill and then layerd on some proper GRP.



Sanded smooth:




The door handle is getting there...




The back bumper is such a bad fit, i'm supprised if it is actually for a Corsa So what do you do if it doesn't fit? Cut it up




Now it fits well, it's held on with tape though




Needs about a days work to get it all nice and sweet though...

Cars getting there, so long as everything goes well I ought to get it finished in a few days. Though I'm having a break I think. If the solenoids turn up tomorrow I shall fit them....

I used to have one... I am going to have the plate mounted under the rear bumoer on the spare wheel well...

The front bumper is staying forever. The rear bumper is going to be changed eventually when I have decided what exhaust to be made up...
