update!

thanks mate will post some trial fitting piks now and try do some more work this week when i find the other sander.

amen to that thats y i sanded to bare metal!

its a bog with fibreglass in in so its abit better for that sorta stuff. according to the professionalslol *hopefulli!* but thanks man.

thanks bro! its the plan! if anyone noes of good painters please let me know!

it seems to be working! it looks better but its not making it "gangsta" or stupid looking, keeping the european elegance

its a subtle change but fulli worth it. im going for that look where u know something is different but it doesnt smak u in the face. * its a cleaner look* Will post more pictures as it progreses.

day 2: I sanded back to bare metal and filled the dents and got it as smooth as i could. *started at 3 and finished at 6 so couldnt get much done.*

day no.1 bought the bonnet. sanded completely back and rust removed and primed to prevent rust.

I saw this photo of a e36 on google with a shaved bonnet and it inspired me to do it. so i looked around on trademe for a second hand bonnet. and only founf ones for around the 200 mark but then came across this ruggerd one for 50 bux. it had 2 dents and some alot of paint peal but aslong as it was structuraly sound i didnt care. went and bought the bonnet, and saved ten bux so got it for 40 bux which i thought wasnt to bad. i went to repco and bought some K&H KAHGLASS *reinforced body filler* and some regular filler with a can of primer. Equipment: -Sander - with different grained sandpaper -primer -reinforced body filler -normal filler for finishing. -K&H wax and grease remover -sanding block -Dry clothe.

did you get your cage done at bm workshop by any chance?

is she for sale ?

ima do a lil bonnet project and does anyone know of any painter hu wont charge to much if all prep work is done? cheers.

you could round the inside edges of the headlights to make it flow more for eg like eyelids but not all the way across if that makes sence?

both pictures are the same?

yeah dont e46 pop open this way? cant you use sumthing similar to that?

Looks really nice. i would love to do something like this. ive seen alot of them done on youtube like this. looks really good.

i had this problem and it was the petrol locking actuator which was broken and the water was going throught there (the pin which locks the flap)

okay mate was just asking.
