Hi folks,
Does anyone have a pair of side trims for an MM series (short bonnet) for sale?
Cheers
Pete

That was my first thought, but not sure if when cut that the cut end would be closed off like the originals.
Reason for needing one is that one fell off during a test drive

Indeed, cutting a normal one down would leave an open end.
Repro ones are made from steel though, so you could cut one of them down and weld an end plate on?

Welding the aluminium one is not a big problem for the company's who are working on actual car's.
At the moment a lot of cars have aluminium parts, even in my street is someone working with aluminium welding tools on car's
