We are waiting, I guess the one the that is important is the fitment.
My shop said that fiberglass can be a PTA, I know it will look good but still a PTA.

Let us know, it is appreciated!

So how did the test fit go?

I assume you did the test fit in case there was any filling or shaving of the fibreglass needed before paint...
