Bonnet

Getting the bonnet on is a big step, one that signifies how close to the finish I am. I ran adhesive strip down both sides of the engine bay to cushion the bonnet, but I have not put tape on the scuttle or nose cone lips yet, as this needs to be thinner. The front left corner is not fitting well yet, and will need a little bending to get it to secure properly. It is also flaring a little at the back on the sides of the scuttle, but I believe this is a normal Birkin thing. I put the rubber trim that it came with back on across the front lip, but will probably remove it as the black line across the orange looks naff.
