Ben is due around this week to detail the car, so in order to be able to undertake the work, I decided to fit the nose cone and bonnet so that it was ready and gave a firm base to detail on.

Job 71 - Fitting the Nose Cone & Bonnet
Fitting the nose cone was a bit of a challenge first time around. The fixings didn't seem to marry up, but having read other posts it was a case of brute force to fit!

Nose Cone fitted - Not the Directional Headlight, my version of Cornering lights! :-) |

Nose Cone and Bonnet loosely in place - No fixings on the bonnet yet, making it easier to detail |

A momentous occasion getting a idea of what it will really look like! :-) |
