Well this is a test of my patience!
I've been messing around with the bonnet, trying to get it to fit without any major adjustments.
First I had to get the mount holes for the hinges correct, Surprisingly DNA don't give any measurements but do for the back, anyway the third attempt worked a charm, I used chemfix to block the drilled holes, this is stronger than FG and wood, plus it expands ever so slightly as it goes off to form a very good repair.
Next I put the Renault trafic bump stops on the scuttle panel (these are on pretty much any Renault commercial vehicle, even on one side of the new 2014 model), not happy with the positon I moved them out for greater adjustment. Then I put the hinge point bump stops in, again I did a little work, this time on the bonnet, again for greater amount of adjustment.
The wing supports were addressed, I slotted the holes so I could adjust them when ever...
With all the work done and several hours adjusting here there...... I couldn't get it perfect.
I went back to square one, I let the front clip sit naturally and lifted the front to where it seemed to feel more balanced for the weight, the side supports were completely loosened off. I then let the bonnet just lay of the bump stops, it was very close, infact the only real problem seemed to be the front nose wanting to sit up slightly, I could use the hinges to pull it down.
Next job was the latch, using the given measurements I drilled the holes in the scuttle panel only to find I had no adjustment, so I rewelded the bonnet catch bracket in a lower position I could then move the catch up and down till perfect, I also fitted a 3x50mm plate behind the scuttle panel for extra rigidity, I'll replace the spacer washers with some solid machined ali spacers for a better look.
The bump stop holes in the bonnet will be reinforced with 42mm core plugs.
The countersunk stainless bolts will remain on show, I don't want to chance any cracking around this area
This is the bonnet in position, My wing supports aren't bolted in position so there's a 3mm drop in this area
Finally a shaky ol' vid showing what I've done
