Well been out this afto, spent a couple of hours doing
the front end, taking longer than expected due to trying
to get 'A' panels and wings to line up nicely when closed.

sprayed the rear end with primer, still some work on
the rear valance too do..

Its sooooooooooo smoooooooooooooooooth. And I cant remember if you've already said but what are you going to do about reverse and rear fog lights?
Ive done lights similar to yours and I want to put new VW Beetle lights in the valance, I was just wandering what your doing with yours.
