It was one of the reasons that I didn't remove the metal flaps that I cut and folded them over themselves, nothing has been removed. I call it an adjustment rather than a chop!
You could say the same on the MX5 as you have to cut away part of the front headlight frame.
With the filler pipe, 2" seems to give me plenty of clearance and it all sits above the inner plastic wheel arch splash panel. I am still waiting for the sikaflex tank N so it could change! When I clue the 90 degree pipe into the existing fuel pipe it will block the existing breather hole which was why I extended it
up to the top elbow.
I used CBS budget fuel pipe because A: I'm a cheapskate and B: the ends of the pipe are smooth sockets to accept the ends, the more expensive flexible pipe is cut to the length you want so both ends have the metal spiral. I thought having the metal spiral under the jubilee clip might leave a tiny gap.
Do have any info on your bonnet vent chrome grill. It looks great and is just what I want to do, a couple of close up pictures would be greatly appreciated.
