    Best thing to do is to walk to your bin, open the lid. Place them in carefully, then shut the lid. Jobs a good'un.

    Thanks for explaining Jimo....

    Maybe you could use some kind of bonding agent. Like tiger seal....

    Or you could use petrol and fire?

    If you smooth it over, where's the best place to locate the bonnet release catch? What's the best thing to do if you smooth your bonnet and want to relocate the catch?

    dont smooth the bonnet over, it would look shocking on a mk1 let alone a mk2!

    i now prefer standard grills, so im taking my mesh off and putting the standard grill back on.
