Another shot of the roof. Starting to like it now :lol:
Image

Has a real nice reflection to it. Ive seem some Cheap Wraps, But this is the Mid-range stuff. and its quite decent! It was also very hot this morning, so i managed to get a few creases out here and there, and it sits real nice now.
Image

Next on my list today, was the windscreen trim, been missing since i had the car, was removed for whatever reason.
Image
Image
Image

After some careful trimming.
Image

Tool of choice.
Image
Image

Done!
Image
Image
Image

Next, the wing... It fits about 70%. So it needs some fettling...
Cut in half, overlapped, and it needs approx 12mm taken out to reduce the width.
Image

It also needed some sanding/ cutting/ grinding to fit the contours of the shuttles body line
Image

Still needs some minor work
Image
Image
Image
Image

Thats it for today! Need to work out the best way to bond the 2 half's together to keep its strength
