hey Jin
um yeah i have already take the rubber mount off just now was a bit tough but no tears
yeah the tough part is mountingit i dont wanna drill...
take is just a bit dodgey 3m might be alright
maybe some good glue or glue gun still thinking i just washed the rubber to get a good contact
ill see how it goes
keep us updated lerroy on how things go :thumbsup:
will do mate ill get some pics up when i finish it....prob wont be till weekend though
i originally used 3m double sided tape but with the heat under ur engine bay the glue becomes less sticky over time.. so try double sided tape, and some black gaffa tape on the top if u got some lying around! cheers
ill give that a go thanks tony
Go for some Araldite mate, it's a two stage epoxy, looks like it's in a syringe with two chambers, each with a diff. colour liquid in them. DO NOT USE SUPERGLUE OR ANY OTHER CHEAP 'TARZAN' GRIP, THEY WILL EAT THROUGH THE RUBBER!!!!!!!
Squirt a bit of the liquid (it pumps equal amounts of each at the same time) onto the surface you want to stick, let it go tacky (sticky) for about two minutes, then adhere the seal. This stuff is rated to like 1.6tonne so that seal aint going nowhere!!!!!
Available at any hardware store!
Hope this helps!
yeah good call araldite is the shit :P stinks though
i just picked up some today for weekend diy :P heheh
You really must put this rubber strip in. People (in the states) have had bonnets POP/unclip at high-speed, cause the air got under 'em. Bonnet Pins are a must at the track for this reason.
I had to redrill all the holes as well as trim-down the clips. Because the CF is ten times thicker than the thin steel sheet they're made to go through. But all good now....But I still haven't done my Bonnet pins.
Just do-it right the first time, I mean, Glue. :thumbdwn: , talk about Getto.
air is gonna get under it man even with my ghetto glue job and even with your drill job
if it happens it happens
im will not put bonnet pins in im sorry but i just hate the look..and thats why i got the bonnet
the bonnet i have is not full carbon its carbon fibre with fibreglass not really that much lighter...maybe if i track it ill consider
