Might look good if the colour of the panels actually matched and they weren't covered in scuffs!
The number of times I've dropped/kicked/knocked/scratched/chipped them is unreal
I would have been well peed of with myself if I'd bought brand new ones!

I stuck with the engine position detailed in my photos (i.e. sump 40mm below bottom rails, engine offset 25mm towards passenger side). Also had to move my throttle cable bracket down slightly by putting the top bolt in the bottom hole and tapping a new hole for the lower bolt if that makes sense
The bonnet fits, but it's tight. I think its just touching the inlet manifold, which might come back to bite me when it's running an the engine is bouncing around on it's rubber mounts...
