It'll look ten times better especially with the rolled arches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Wouldnt use filler... it will end up sinking and looking awful... if you can track one down or borrow one a plastic welding kit would do the job perfectly... useful tool to have around aswell Alternative build it up with fibreglass and skim it over with filler?
