I think this is David's but am not sure since David has a different design bonnet.

bumper with extra vents. Doesn't look too bad and will keep the engine bay/coolant fluid or engine oil cooler.

Also many other Midas parts from the seller so take a look. Low starting bids.

It looks like a coupe has been on fire.

The seller's name is Gordie, he's near Glasgow. I've been asking him about the wheels and things. Haven't got the heart to ask him about the car's demise...

No its not my bonnet.

I made a mould for my bonnet. I think Rich has the master plug unless he wuzzed it.

Crying shame about car though.

It would be interesting to know how the car caught fire, for us to learn from and to prevent. My first guess would be an electrical fire since a petrol fire would have burnt the car completely to the ground.

Would make a good bonnet that with the right bit of prep rich. Plenty more space to keep the engine cooler in traffic.

I suspect it may be a bit brittle, filler has chipped out of it in a few places without any real provocation So I suspect I may repair it and tie it all together with epoxy primer and 2-pack so it can be used as a buck again.
