Fixed the last edge :)
I gotta pat myself on the back a little.. I'm quite impressed with my craftmenship lol.. its the first time i've ever done anything like this.. I've plastered on bondo on rust spots and sanded .. but never sculpted anything like this before.. its all really level, contours well and super smooth! I cant wait to prime it today! i did the top edge almost by memory and feel it was only high in one spot when i test fit it after the first shaping. i cant wait to get this thing painted up :) I found a vendor on ebay with blue carbon fiber vinyl that looks pretty real...lol but i think it would look kinda cheesy.. idk

i think i'm missing the point. If i paid that much for a hood, it will fit perfectly as it should or it will go back to the vendor. That is not normal or acceptable if you ask me.

ah, i see. still kind of odd to see a body piece not fit that should. are they all this way from c-one?

That's why Garm is letting them go for $100. , bloody cheap if you have the time , and know how too fix them .

I stopped to talk to the body guy friday and he has been swamped and hadn't had time to play with it. but he said this week he should have time. he plans on smoothing out the surface a bit more before prime and paint. i cant wait to get it back. its going to be sick
