You can see from the photo with the yellow arrows that I had some gaps to fill around both the grille surround and the headlight bezel. I taped off the parts and applied filler completely around the bezel and all along the grille surround. After the filler set up a little bit, I removed the shiny stuff and waited for the filler to harden completely. I sanded the excess down to the parting line and then re-taped all the edges and added some filler along the lips for backup. A bit more sanding and I had a nice base for the bezel and surround to seat up against. So the passenger side is done except for several coats of high build primer and blocking.

The last photo is the driver side. It has a much bigger step than the one I just finished, so I'll have to blend the filler further back on the fender. Stay tuned.
