Bought an old bonnet from AdamMK2 from here a couple of months ago now, its a bit beaten up but in better condition than the temp one I had on...the underside of this one is pretty damn rusty so i may have to get a better one next year, he also chucked in a front bumper but in the end it was in too bad a state for me to use and had a clip missing. not complaining though as he only wanted £25 for both.
Its blistered like this all across the front and loads on the top so some heavy sanding in places required.
I'm going to leave the underside post MOT
Keyed the whole lot and went heavy where needed... looks like its just caught measels!
Zinc primer on the worst bits followed by normal grey over the lot.. no pics of that... doh
Few coats of Satin black... about one and half litres for now.. i know theres dents to sort so this is not the finished job
Pictures make it look better than it is.. probably the worst painting from cans i've ever done! but at least its black for now!
got some of these, thought they'd be an easy 5 minute job but had trouble getting the struts on the ball joints and bashed the feck out of my thumb trying to get them on.. managed one and gave up as i was running out of time and not really essential right now!
Fitted up the bonnet in the normal fashion instead
Catch is different so doesnt shut, need to swap them over
