On the up side, the front will look even more perfect once it's done!
Are you still considering race stripes?

It is unfortunate, but it's just one of those things that is not expected until it happens to someones car. If the repair looks effective Chris could always decide to add it into future kits.
Hopefully by highlighting it other builders can add some strengthening in the vulnerable area and avoid having the same issue. We are also looking at way to mount the front on rubber pads when it's closed to stop the small amount of movement/vibration that the standard BMW catch allows.
I'm hoping to avoid putting stripes on as if the crack appears again at some point I can use vinyl stripes to disguise it if it's only very slight.
