well dad said he will get a small bit off wood and hit it with a hammer and it will push it back down the only rusty bit was as i took the carpet up there was a rummber mat all under the pedals porb where waters come down and just sat there for a while whn it had no windos

just got in from sanding the front drivers wing and i was thinking is it worth havign a flip front fiberglass?

what are the good points and bad points?

I've always wanted a flip front, but never had the bottle to do it!

Pros:

Lighter,
No rust,
Easier access,
Once converted, easy to replace complete front end,

Cons:

difficult fit,
wobbly on road if not done properly,
cracks rather than denting if you prang it,


I reckon on the whole they are worth it, and I reckon my mext Mini will have one! :grin:
