Great colour Ivor but a bit too close the green of the Dart. I spotted this car a couple of years ago which had me thinking gold.

Other side all done and dusted. Thought you might like to see my easy peasy method of Fabbing the new lip. You have to make sure you are happy with the shape before you tack on a 2" wide strip. Grind it flush 1/2" at a time and fully weld it. Repeat till it's all done, you shouldn't get any distortion. Grind the weld flush and carefully radius the edge to match. Trim the inside edge to match & put the kettle on. The finished job will require virtually no filler to finish.
