Looking good, has it improved the handling of the cae at all?

p.s what happened to the other bonnet strut?

Not with a fibreglass bonnet it wont:D

The other bonnet strut was taken off to try make the bonnet fit better plus it aint needed as bonnet weighs nothing:D

The stut brace now holds the battery in aswell now:)

Did you find it clamped in ok as it doesnt have much of a shoulder around the bottom for the clamp to bite down on :( Looks smart though with an Optima under the hood, and the brace is tidy mate : )


i think its clamped very slightly but it doesnt really need it at all cuz its so heavy and a snug fit it doesnt move anywhere:lol:

Same just open the pics in Paint and go Image > Stretch/Skew... and change to say 40% of the size then re-save?

Brace looks good too :)
