Has any one else had problems trying to get the above looking good? Got a bonnet it lines up one side good but the other is miles out. Iam sure its too short on one side. not happy.:mad:

Hammer and brute force FTW. Have a gander at my WIP thread in my sig. I had major fitment problems. To the point where i cut off my nice new front panel and bought a new one! Bit of hammer action, and jiggery pokery, all good!

Very common with pattern parts,ive used panels from Toys 'R' Us before and to be honest its not only the fit that is poor its the quality of the steel.

use a measure tape and check and if its miles out use it for welding practice.
