    cut outs !!!!!!!!!!!!

    couldnt work out why the bonnet has all the cut outs round the edge ? till the penny dropped !! its so they could get in with the spot welder ! to join the top to the bottom ! but didnt they realise this would trap rain water coming through the engine bay ? bad design

    bonnet

    the bonnet was a bastard ! got to say it and its done my head right in ! all the cut outs round the edge had surface rust on the inside and it was so hard getting into all the nooks ! it rates as one of the worst jobs ive done on the car so far ! it would have broken a weaker man
