The bonnet gap on the driver side is huge, ill fitting copy bonnet



Have managed to get it a bit better


Then made a start on the wing bits and taped em in








Next time you see them they will be welded in

Still need a bit time on wings like

Yeah I would elongate the holes. Or undo the front, close the bonnet. Push it over and hold it and get someone to lift the bonnet and tighten it. A little bit makes a big difference.
