Latches coming along:





Bonding the hood.





I used spacers to get the hood to match the level of the front clip so I don't have to use so much Rage Gold (read less sanding!) I used the same structural epoxy that I bonded everything else with. (linked in an earlier post on this thread)

I drilled a lot of #40 holes about 1/16" deep around the edge of the hood, and a bunch of #20 holes around the edge of the hood opening about 1/16" deep. This thing isn't coming off.

I'll also use some glass cloth and resin underneath as well.

Time to break out the Rage again...
