yeah man i would glue it on with some shit, (urethane ro panelbond or something of the like) and then just sand teh edges and bog it smooth, if u look at my build thread, we just glued mine on and then used sealer to smooth the edges out looks quite neat.

pop rivert the wing on...

grind the rivert flush with the wing...

apply fibre glass or what ever bog your using...

wait till dry..

sand back smooth...

paint...

its striaght forward....making it look nice comes with experience thats the only thing with body work

use a bonding agent with fewer rivets, it allows for more natural movementand lacement of the panel

ive never used fb much, but im about to crack on with a bonnet mod, come and watch/help/get in the way if your keen while i figure it out :)
