Bonnet Sorted :)

[ShiDevil]

After driving on the autobahn and watching at 130mph my bonnet lift up on our road trip to Baden Baden I thought time to sure things up. Very disconcerting and frustrating to not feel able to go quicker with the big boys

1. Graham Varley Mods





Foam strips to secure the middle bonnet section better. I got these from B&Q as recommended by Clive





Rubber Washers and Foam.



I also added new bonnet plates which I had CNC machined and I then filed a groove into the back of them which has also helped to lock the bonnet solidly in place. I've got several sets of these if anyone is interested.



All back together and absolutely rock solid!

Hi,

I've got 18 sets. Here is a link to ebay which seemed the best way of doing it.

Arrived, thank you. They are such a work of art I don't want to file a groove into them!!!

Lol if you mess it up I'll do you a half price deal if you need another pair mate. I'm not doing for profit just needed them myself. I'm considering reducing the size of the hole too, the washer obviously keeps it in place and the hole size creates flexibility to move around to position but I figure I could get a better fit or flusher fit.

Lol - Good news - 10mins with the dremel and job done, grooves all made. Fitted and the bonnet locks in place perfectly.

Many Thanks

Good work mate
