could you not just have louvres punched in original bonnett / luggage cover ? was goingto do that but they let water in, plus once I had cut the firt hole there was no going back ;-( then I found out that I need to press the recess in, but way beyond my metal bashing skills.. so think a GRP bonnet with a recess routed in then glass the vent in is the best action.. though perhaps for the cost I coul dget someone to put the recesses in for me..

yep hung loosely to allow for movement from the back panel Si that is what i was wondering...does the vibrations from the exhaust cause any stress to the rear panel or make any noise? seems ok, I have a rubber bobbin between the bracket and the panel.. there is also a strip of heat mat (a cheap plumbing solder mat) between the can and bracket..

Ooh Ooh another one running TBs! ;D This ones nice too  The 'late' original Mini Cooper wheels suit the style well. Is that a pink stripe down the side - very 70s  |

Is that a pink stripe down the side - very 70s yer wheels are nice, though heavy - the offset is great on the front, but rears needed spacers + the fronts need the centre bore machined out to clear the imp hub.. Si ps stripe is RED! just the light in the picture |
