Hi all,
I'm new to the site and just getting the resolve to finally go ahead and make some c/f parts after years of wanting to give it a go.
I want to make a few bits for my motorbike and westfield and am in the stages of doing research on the various techniques needed.
How would I best go about tackling tabs/brackets that are moulded into some of the plastic parts on my bike? A case in point would be the back of the head light surround, which I've attached pics of (hopefully!) to show an example. Its to the best pic in the world. And the light unit is in 2 parts (black and silver plastic) but there are various tabs, brackets and screw holes to be tackled.
Any advice greatly received!
Cheers
Steve
