Default Restoring a Rouse spoiler (sponsered by DOO ;-))

Manty thanks to DOO for trusting me with this, he sent me his front Rouse spoiler for me to remould with a few modifications to make it stronger and more 'curb-resistant'.

This is what I got-



Just look at the paint, cracked to hell!


Nice split!





The paint was of not terrestrial origin, whan sanded it melted and reset, stank of bitumen and was a pain in the ar$e to get off.

But 2 1/2 hours woth a DA sander I now have -



Is that 4 layers of paint??





Next I have to join them together and mount it onto some MDF so it can be sanded and painted.

I'll see if I can get some pics of it being moulded too, it might be interesting to see how moulds and glass parts are made.
