Broken bonnet mount

I noticed when fitting my alternator that the passenger side bonnet mounting was broken. I have been wondering why it was rubbing so badly.

I purchased a pot of P40 Isofix and re-fibreglassed the mount back into place.

It's a two person job getting the bonnet off. Pretty simple as it's held in place by 4 allen bolts.

Here she is with her bonnet off.


I took the time to paint the exhaust manifolds with Very High temperature matt black paint whilst I had good access. A few more inaccessible bits to do - but need to get under the car for those. (note shinny new alternator and poly vee belt)
