Default CF bonnet fitting.

Is there an easy way to get these to fit nice or have I got to live with the " its a copy so it won't fit nice?"

Looks ok this side.




Looks like shit this side.

The rubber stoppers at each side are adjustable ..... you rotate them to move them up and down.

You then need to fiddle about with the catch to get it to sit right.

Took me a while to get it aligned.

(Looking good )

Is this Boy Wonder's old one? If so, he had the same problem. Have you tried fiddling with the stoppers?

Yeah it is boywonders old one, if he had problems it must be a duff copy.

I fiddled with the stoppers, no good, took the stoppers off still no good, put nail polish on all the high bits of engine to see if it was hitting them, still no good.

I guess I'm going to have to live with the extra venting.
