I am just having some re-profiled bonnet hinges made up which raise the rear lip of the bonnet up around an inch to allow for better cooling/airflow. They replace the standard hinges as can be seen here. These are the prototypes and the finished articles will have some fancy slots cut into them to look a bit fancy and save a few ounces www.jb-fab.com www.facebook.com/jbfabrication

I would say no. If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of. |

Just looking at the DSN classics site. Their clubman hinges are different to round nose ones and they say that the round nose do not fit clubmans. Looks like yours are no good for me. On 11th Feb, 2015 robert said:

Should be able to sort one tomoro, the one I tried was a new set a mate had just bought for their clubby so she will be a bit pissed off that they are saloon ones! www.jb-fab.com www.facebook.com/jbfabrication

Without trawling through my back catalogue of Mini Worlds, does anyone else remember the long article a year or so back about the Mini in the windtunnel at MIRA ?
