    Paint filler and silver pencil. All some great things that I seem to forget. Will have to get a move on the use of pens.

    pencil is less messy than paint and paint is easier to sand than filler !

    I see you got resin seats 🙂 (at least the original seats were that brown resin stuff it would seem)
