hello all, im after some pics of how people have fixed down there fiberglass bonnets with pins. ive got a pic from evouk of how they are fitted at the front so that part is sorted, what im really after are where the pins go through the rear part, midge has his going through one of the holes for the wing but id like mine in abit more secure position ie the suspension turret but im not sure where to drill.. any pics?

Here's how I pinned mine. If you use those points you don't even need to drill anything on the car.

Pinned mine in the same place midge has, it will be fine, you've got metal under the plastic wing, mine are drilled through the metal and the plastic

Looking at the above pic those are through the plastic scuttle panal.....less secure than midge's method lol

No, there's no scuttle panel on there at the moment! It's through the metal on the wing and is very solid.

Jay, I'll get some pics for you with the bonnet off, but it will probably be next weekend before I get the chance as its pitch black when I leave for work and pitch back when I get back home again at the moment!
