Nice going with the bonnet bulge there Troy. They look even better from the drivers seat let me tell you!! Sadly, I only got rid of mine(BAXR8) a fortnight ago :(

due to the rain progress has been slow on the bonnet.
although i did take advantage of the rain and did a little bit of wet sanding.lol..

there are still a couple of high/low spots that need looking at..
hopefully the weather will be better in the next few days...

Ride: DENTED UP OLD AUT WAGON

Location: Wellington
New Zealand

Awesome work there... I can chop and weld and bog etc etc, but I am USELESS at taking small dents out... The bog I put in always seems to get sanding straight out again or it goes all lumpy as it is so thin at the edges... Guess the universe is telling me to leave that side of things to someone like PaulC and you........


Fiend scuffs feet on way to buy a new bonnet.....

I'm with you Fiend, I get to the best I can and usually hand them over to someone else for the final treatment. You can chase small bumps all day. First you think you have got them all and when you put primer on it looks like Parramatta rd, :lol: :lol:.

Great job Troy hope you are happy with it.

yes im very happy with it.. :)
the only part im having slight difficulty with is getting the line straight where the rear of the bulge meets the bonet..
but as you know with a little filler,some patients and some sanding it will come good..
