hi all, i have a damaged passenger side side-skin of my sigma academy car, so thought i would have a go at replacing it myself other the winter break as caterham quoted over a grand to do it themselves. my presumptions are remove the front corner, inlet manifold, ecu, rear wing and inner trim and then drill out the rivets and replace. i understand it wont be quite that straight forward but is this the general jist of what needs doing?

And rolling over the rear upper chassis rail as it rises at the rear of the passenger cockpit.

There is one just where that starts Charles, then two over the turret, oh, and one forward below the aft wishbone mount. I think.

You need to remove the scuttle also.
