Can anyone help ? My bonnet can't lock down now because certain garages have been careless and yanked the bonnet up ripping the metal clips off! Any ideas how to repair or fibreglass them back on ?

What was the mechanic, a gorilla ?

Probably best to bond a stainless T section with some two part structural adhesive boat builders use
To bond stainless to grp. I've just re-done the rod end studs in the nose of the bonnet with modifications and the structural
Adhesive. Worked well.
