New fibreglass front mudguard

Since the recent parking collision (at which I wasn't present) the front mudguard has been precariously partially tethered with strong cable ties. Its replacement arrived this weekend from http://www.fibreglassparts.com/ and I'm very pleased with it. It fits well and it has the metal brackets to the rear moulded into the structure, although I did have to buy longer M5 set screws to attach these.

I was lucky enough to have dry weather which gave me enough time to sand, wash with turps, and then give it a coat of primer, and then a couple of top coats of my near-match beige.

 The new one is on the right :)
