    yea i seen that before but i what to a guide of how to smooth it cos i think it looks harder then it is due to the large amount of filler i'll be using and whether it will stay down cos the arches flex

    although it looks nice, it will end up cracking, best off doing fibreglass on it first, few layers on wither side then do the filler, the less filler the better
