Badlook bonnet fitting?

J-O · Post by **J-O** » Mon Jul 14, 2003 11:18 pm

I got the badlook bonnet from Mattig and tried to fix it....but after a couples of hours, droll 4 holes for the screws, install the badlook and tried to close the hood...but something is blocking it

so what's the problem? it's touching the lights, but it seems to stop before the closed position...

any idea or comments?

please

My Rieger one for my Golf needed sanding down quite a lot be fore it would fit flush. have a look on the spoiler if there's any marks where the bonnet has hit it.

try holding it in position on the lights the closig the bonnet slowly if it feels like its a soft object blocking it then screw in the 2 rubber stops on the front edge corners. to secure mine i drilled 2 small holes in the spoiler and bonnet so that they lined up when the spoiler was where i wanted it and the pout some self tapping screws in

(note the blocks of wood underneath the rear wheels) makes the front of the car look lower cause its tilted down!

I'll let you off this time though!

yeah I know...LOL...but that's the only way I can lift the car...

anyway, it's low enough for me...tonight I've touch the front and the rear at the same time

after only 5 days, my from lip is already screwed up
