Fixed this Not the smartest of patches, but hey it works.... Just needs some paint now. This posting may have been helpfull, on the other hand probably not... Either way, I may have had drink when posting it in which case it's probably not as helpfull as it could have been
Work safe, and remember all technical problems can be resolved with a hammer, the trick is knowing where to hit it and how big a hammer to use (I often find it may also help to have a spare bit in the shed to replace the bit you have just mullered ) Work in Progress (or not as the case may be) I give you....

Also, moved the winch bumper project on a bit. Now done the little bits of bumper leading to the wheel arch trim and welded in some plate to try and protect the body section below the headlight mounting that seemed a bit 'exposed' Side bumper Protective plate Nearly finished, just a top bracing bar/spotlight mounting bar to make and fit and drill out the shackle mounts to 20mm This posting may have been helpfull, on the other hand probably not...

Re: WHAT YOU DID TO YOUR TRUCK TODAY!
It often works better to apply a drop coat to silver base coat....base up with normal overlap and volume, then apply a final drop coat from 2-3 times the distance from the panel, more of a dusting than a heavy full coat. Check out the index thread below where pics/reviews from all our past meets can be found!!!!
click here for the SE Events Index/links Thread...see all the reviews and whats coming up soon! Looks like I'm in trouble with the Mrs's again... She asked me what I'd most like to do to her body... Apparently "Identify it" is not the correct answer! MAKE IT or BREAK IT! TEAMXTREME4X4

People leaving Fronteras on this or that beach does seem to happen a lot ... ..starting to look like a habit! I wonder what they says for Fronty owners in general? Better to be late than to lie in state!
