Looking good dude. Big flat bonnets are really hard to get right from what i've been told. Even mine has a small dip in it in one spot.

As smooth as a babies bottom. Well, a babies bottom that's been wetsanded with 400 that is.







I have to re check everything to make sure it's all smooth, that'll be wednesday. Fingers crossed for some colour on thursday.

It is a cool colour BUT in my family there's a white Sigma and a white Camira

Good work there Jarred. It's cool to see people doing it themselves. Be good to see the finished product.
