    So after a few smokes and coffees it dawned on me...

    *perhaps the eyebrow/lid was damaged in the crash so it won't fit properly*

    I had a little investigate and low and behold the mounting brackets were bent out of shape, thus forcing the lid over...

    Bad side...

    Good side...

    So, with a little bending and manipulation it went back on much better. Its by no means perfect and still sits slightly under the bonnet (hood for my colonial cousins).

    I also had a new stereo delivered so popped that in for a trial fit.

    Thus concludes my days work. Off for a couple days R&R.

    Weyhey... :)
    I'm baaack.
    So, Celi Status update...

    There has been a small amount of body roll on the passenger side (point of impact) and will need to go on a jig to straighten her out. It's only mm's but throws the panel gaps right out.
    Got some replacement trim to tidy her up and a new eyelid so she looks a touch better.

    Ive also sourced some fibre glass wings which should reduce the cost of repair significantly.

    I really do need a new sun roof as mine is rusted to hell. Does anyone have any links to the fibre glass ones that were around a few years back?

    I can't find anything...

    Hope you guys are good.

    Take Care
