I've been spending the majority of my time working on installing my bonnet catches, which do look good, but are a right pain to install , to get them roughly in the right place is easy but getting the bonnet to sit flush against the side panels is the biggest pain as you end up moving a bracket which then moves the pin position and then you need to alter the angle the pin sits at, I have got 2 finished on one side so the bonnet sits flush, and I have started on the other 2, hopefully these will go a bit quicker now I know what I'm doing, I then just need to buy some rubber edge trim/foam to sit on the bonnet edge/scuttle and nose cone mounting surfaces so that the bonnet sits flush with the top/sides of the scuttle and nose cone. I have to say though I have no idea how I managed to cope without a dremel....

I will try to get some pictures up later on today.
