6/ was about 5mm short all the way round (BIG panel gaps, most un-Audi-like)

But when you're building a shorty recreation you just have to fit the bonnet with the right look.
No fibreglass panels i've ever seen have been a direct fit, working them is essential.... if you think Ker Innovatec are bad, try new audi panels... I've known factory made panels take 40hours work to fit..

That said I have ker innovatec front wings... they are pretty shocking...
