Bonnet Lining
Posted: Thu Mar 08, 2018 5:20 pm
My 2.0 litre is being stripped for respray and the underside of the bonnet is in need of a great improvement!
Maybe the paint should be lightly textured [?] but this is ridiculous. I also understand that all colour cars had satin black in this area and that Spiders had an acoustic liner. My car has 4 x M5 nuts strategically fixed to the inside though, as if there may have been fixings for this lining. Maybe it has 2 strips to hold the material? Have these been added aftermarket?
I doubt having this kind of lining is a good thing anyway, surely we want to hear the engine.
