At least you wont have to worry about colour match and paint.. Just have to wrap it..

Nah,will get it painted white underneath. Otherwise id just know. Also when it gets time to pull the vinyl off,it wont rip off the filler with it.

Todays progress:
Pretty much finished up the side seams. Rounded out the bottom of the side vents a bit. Still have to round off the tops of the side vents and clean up the underside of the bonnet a bit.

So bloody hard to see the profile of the vent with a flat colour
