Default Ba Bonnet Bulge onto AU Bonnet Debacle

i recently bought a fibreblass bulge for my AU and just thought id let you guys know some of the drama i experienced as these things are an absolute c*!t to get right

the bulge looked pretty good straight out the box and i tohught it would be pretty straight forward WRONG once it was trimmed n ready to go on the bonnet i realised that there was no way i could just slap some glue on n leave it there...... 20 odd screws n a lot of urethane later she was stuck on the bonnet haha. cupla days late ri removed the screws and filled the holes n ground it all abck n then had to take to lip with some bog n A LOT OF RUBBING there was a massive gap at the front of the bulge as the bonnet shapes are way different.... so alot of skin n elbow grease later she's ready to paint
i recommend either buying a bonnet with it moulded ie from AWC or track down a steel XR bonnet and cut the bulge out... pics up soon once she's painted. now i just got figure out how to relocate the window washers
