Little bit of progress after work today.
Got a filler spreader made and started applying filler to the weld, but I ran out half way through, still miles off lol. 
Important boot progress!

I've been told the same off friends lol, the coilovers have a good bit left to wind down. Do you think I'll need arch work to drop it a little lower?

Progress is slow and steady, trying to get a body-shop like finish takes time! 
Made a custom sanding block for the bottom sill on the boot so I can get the lines matched up.
Still hope to be finished and onto smoothing the door handles and keyholes this weekend.

Finished ready to prime!
Bought some low profile Xsara washer jets off eBay too, to mount into the front sill and smooth the bonnet later this week.

Bump, washer jets aren't on yet but I wanted to start work on cleaning the bonnet.
Relocating the jets to the scuttle was an easy job!
Wet and dry sanded, just about ready to prime.
Door locks and bump strip badges next, four weeks till spraying! The boot and bumper need a gallon of stopper before that though..
