My Humps - Part 2:
I needed to make a filler piece for the driver's side lid and used a bit of yoga mat.





When the first round of fibreglass had set, I removed the tape and did round 2.

I allowed some bits of matting to stick out beyond the edges, as I will trim them back later.

Body Shell - Driver's Side



Body Shell - Passenger Side



Boot Lid - Driver's Side



Boot Lid - Passenger Side



Unfortunately, by the time I'd finished the second round of fibre glassing, the sky looked like this.



So I tidied everything away and tucked the lid underneath the body shell like so.



By the time all the covers were on and the driveway was cleaned, the sun came back out.

But I'm happy with what I managed to get done today.

Next Steps:
- Add a layer of chopped matting and resin to give the basic shape.
- Add a layer of body filler to provide the smooth finished surface.

Until next time, take care, Paul.
