why did you photoshop your car symetrically?

also big dave you can see what i mean about the black bit in that pic

PhatAshKi · 26-06-2005

cause i got one side down pretty good and couldnt get the ova side to look right, the light was shining off it differently so thought sod it and mirrored it, still works, ya wouldnt know apart from the background really.

Well firstly, I clocked the 2 ARIELS ! then.. the pattern on ya plates & then I thought something wasnt right !

But you still get a good idea of what it would look like !!!

Spot Welding....wouldnt really recommend tbh if MIG or arc welds are available. Having spot welded numerous things in the past and being able to watch the welds corrode a lot in the space of a matter of weeks (its due to the localised heat spot welding causes, MIG and arc give it over a larger area and much more uniformly)

--------------------------------
The bonnet was removed and placed in a suitable environment (my shed!!!)

The i drew round the light cut outs on the bonnet to make the metal patchs, firstly on carbord (left) then in metal (right)
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v320/big...etmiddle001.jpg

Then the cut plates were spot welded on the bonnet!
Front

Underside

The out came the filler to cover up the mess. after that i used 'primer filler' paint to show up where i have got to use more filler. The drivers side needs less filler than the passenger as it was gettin l8 and the filler dust got to me.

I also took off the fiat badge

here ar the final pics - all i have to do now is filler the last few bits, re-primer and paint

I think i have done quite a good job already!!!

all i have to do is bore out the holes on the bracket to get the bonnet to sit lower so it dont smash the lites - then its done!!!

alryt m8....like OMG wat a quality job uv dun, i sooooo wna do tht to mine...ow much in total did u pay for the job m8? my grandads a electrican, so if he can weld the plates to the bonnet, then all set to go! is fillin and sandin easy? did u use fine sand paper ? and i can get sorted wiv a cinq bonnet, from this scarpyard....

all for free :P where did u get the paint from? wat paint wud u recommend? for cheap and easy to spray ? i can get my mate to spray it u see...his into body styling and that :P haha so ye got the contacts...just need inspiring...write back wen u can buddy....
cheers
