Alot of filling to do on the body work to fill in the lines from where the extra body parts was added.

made a new grill left the turning lights out of it thou,

basical grill is 2sheets of plastic card .3mm i belive then 1sheet which is set back 2mm then 2 sheets agin till theres 4 sets of twin sheets spaced by a sheet. which was sanded down till all the edges matched.

then it was placed in n glued to the lower part n left to dry.

once dryed i applyed some milliput (2 part piller) to the top of the grill to make te front top lip

as shown in pic


now waiting for the filler to harden then i can sand it all down till the right shape is done
