I tried to apply fly eye tint, failed miserably, the curvature of the headlight is just too much for a man if my limited skills!! :(

Wrinkle city! Tried to smooth them out with a heat gun, but nooooo they just melted! Lol

So tried again, applying more slowly and holding the heat gun further away and yes, less wrinkles, but still looked crap with the few wrinkles that were there, so peeled it if and have up :(

Whilst bored this evening I decided to remove the front bumper and rub down the front lower cross member to get rid of the rust before it got serious

And then I have it a good thick coat of underseal
