Engine bay plating/smoothing
« on: 29 January 2013, 23:20 »
Wanting to get started on the MK3 now I have a garage, thinking about a smoothish engine bay look.

What sort of legalities and safety concerns will be on welding plates in for the smooth look?

Such as:


Don't want it naked just wanting the legs smooth.  :smiley:

Just wondering if in a crash ect. it could ever cause an issue? Do the DVLA need to know and what sort of things could it effect in a MK3 Golf when it comes to crumpling?

Lots of VOSA cars round here lately!  :grin:

Cheers.

Where all my moneys went.
