UPDATE: been filling holes, painful filling countless holes drilled by previous owners in the decklid, the trim clip holes along the sides of the body, and the front lid, slowly getting them filled, doors are the last bit left, pics later, left camera at the girlfriends place again.

Filled holes where chrome trim was

Close up of filled hole, not perfect but pretty damn good i think.

Cut hole where vent was, filling with sheetmetal

Damn number plate and who knows what holes in the decklid, not bad for free though?

Slowly trimming the old sections left overs ive missed off, then it looks like the easiest way to do it is trim the lip on the front end to match the front firewall bit, if that makes sence?
HOPEFULLY have these at the very least tacked on in the exact spots its meant to be, again i say hopefully! will update later, doing abit this arvo aswell. cant believe this has been looked at over 1000 times already.

Well they may seem to be on but they certainly are not, squeezed them in there to see if i can make em fit...

These are the only remaining issues, easy fold on the bottom part, cut and extend weld shut on top.

I have tomorrow then 1 day next week maybe, will be interesting if i get it done by then...
