very nice.
ordered l/r series hinges and fixings for doors.

Hmm. This should be interesting.
I assume you are going to make a steel frame to mount the hinges on, in lieu of the LR bulkhead.

Me too. The tops of P4 wings are quite flat front to back. It's the front/sides that have all the curves. Think a 90/110 grill and front panel might be easier to mate to the bonnet but wouldn't be quite so distinctive.
That was a lot of packaging for a box of light bulbs.

Collected wings today, crap journey, rain there and back.
Wings look ok, had a measure and everything looks like it will fit with a bit of fettling
What's legality of 3 head lights? Middle one for main beam only.

Nope, as far as I know you can't do a central main beam. But....The P4 Rover Cyclops (up to 52) had a spotlight mounted centrally in the grill and there doesn't seem to be anything in the modern IVA manual with reference to front spotlights so you might be OK, as long as it's switched with warning lamp and can only work with main beam.
