Merry Christmas!
I just have a little bit of progress to report today.

Thankfully, yesterday's fibreglass work had set hard enough for me to remove the support brackets today.



But rather than tackle this side of the bonnet, I tidied up the inside edges where the tek screws had been.



Then I added a few layers of matting over the holes & along the gap.



Once it had started to set, I left the bonnet out in the sun to help speed up the process.



Note:
The cardboard on the corner was to stop the sharp edge of the bonnet tearing the covers.

But the fact is that whilst it was sunny, it was still pretty cold outside.

So rather than start rushing things, I decided that work on the top side of the join could wait until after Christmas.

So I carried the bonnet back out to the front drive so it would be better protected with my waterproof tarpaulin.

Obviously it still all looks a bit of a mess at the moment.



But at least I have actually started the healing process & as Swifty says, it can all be fixed.

Hope you all have a great Christmas, take care, Paul.
