I'm leaving filling / fibreglass / painting to do it all at once.

I have a few areas that need going over with the grinder to neaten it up.

Well pleased with todays progress but still a fair amount to do. Some areas of the drivers foot well and the front clip.

I was reading up on the MOT the other day (funny that, with my MOT being the other day) and as far as I can tell, the law just requires it to be "secured" - it doesn't actually state how. String should actually be legal.

Having said that, your cable ties do seem to be a teeny bit flimsy... That bit of channel/box section should be more than man enough though!

I love 410 grilles, but I also liked your red wings - they suited it! I like the red/black/yellow thing. Was cool.
