Right been a while since ive had time to do anything on my sol.... got a big list.
ive had side skirts for few years that have never been fitted bought with a load of bits which was a bargain.
so thought id have a look at fitting them but the previous owner had filled them all on and not cut them in properly.
So tryed them on but didnt like the fit so out came the firbe glass and time to add some bits on to get the fit right!!!

tape on to show where i need to add firbe glass
Image

Image

Image

wanted it to wrap round more.
Image

Image

Image

filled an sanded.
Image

Image

needs more filling and sanding.
Image

alot happier with the fit now..
need to primer and spray them
little bit of progress.

So had an hour too look at the snapped splitter. See what I could do with it.. Turns out is carbon fibre under the paint. Looks like it may off been repaired before. Really want to take it back to the carbon so gonna have to look at carbon repair. I've fibre glassed it from the back. Used some ply to hold it in place while i repaired it.

In the pic above there's a lot of filler where it split. Makes me think its been repaired before and was weak or had a crack and been filled over.
