Just came across Jon Weywadt's post on why they didn't gavanize some parts, and saw the inside of his front bonnet. WTF?? This doesn't look like mine... Jon's: Some others: Mine: Looks like some previous owner has welded a 8X30mm steelbar INSIDE the reinforcements on the Bonnet A quick flip on the calculator showed me that this adds 2.5kg of weight, for no apperent reason, since I don't see any of you guys having it on yours.... Looks like I have to get medieval with the anglegrinderone of these days....

He he, not to worry, tried high exposure time on my camera, so there is ALOT more sparks then it actually was.
Yes, I see what you mean, surely looks like they are for something.... we have a lot of aerospace grade aluminuim at work, perhaps I should make some kind of crossbeam there later.

I had the same problem on the corners. I closed the gap with kit, and after that I put a new strip. I have a new window ready for mounting, but that will be done just before a respray somewhere in the near future.
OMG, I am an idiot! I forgot to tell You and all others, that we've found a company which, specialy for us, produced the rubber/plastic strip (also known as bauset) exactly by Murenas original, of course with selfadhesive tape Price was 6,-Eur/meter. If anyone is interested, I could ask them if it is possible to do it again.
