So I'll have another look at how to keep the bonnet from flapping around later today (weather permitting).
Although, I reserve the right to just paint my bathroom locks BRG and fit them anyway.

My 2 cents for what there worth, I would fit the catches wide apart and paint them body colour.
Old race cars were functional, nobody cared if it had chromed wheels, or if there was an odd bit of mesh behind an air intake or vent or if a catch was an ad hoc fix.
British racing green itself was made out of left over military green and black paint. Which varied each time knocked up a batch
So for that authentic - it may have completed the Targa Florio look I would carry on as you have been Paul
