The left side front nearly complete. I've taken a few ideas from Mr Warthog in the UK (the ultimate build). Still to decide if I'm going to put a Carbon finish on the brake ducts.I need to remove the ugly joint line in the duct.

LOL indeed !! Laugh I've got a long way to go to get up to that standard. Thanks for the encouraging comments.
