Most likely gonna break it, although may repair. If its a breaker, the bonnet is yours.

Great :D should be able to get a Bonnet from one of you then if I haven't got one by then. The breakers never seem to get it that the VT bonnet is different to the other 91 civics. (I wouldn't like to try an non VT bonnet on :shock: as with a vt bonnet on there is only about 0.5cm of clearance)

Yeah!, it sucks, but that will be a full front end resray as far back as the doors including the price and fitment of a new front panel. So it should look lilke new, although I am not as keen on the newer paints, imo they seem to pick up microscratches and swirls far eaisier.

My Radiator turned up today :D :D It looks good, I'm quite pleased with it, it looks like it may fit ok, but I won't know for sure until I can try it place.

I also spent half the day doing some wire tucking.

I was a bit annoyed to find a small scratch on the top of it, but the guy at the bodyshop said he could polish it out. I was also eyeing up a very nice Bently Continental GT and a Widebody EVO with a sexy Carbonfibre Roof which had just been installed. (Belongs to the guy who owns the bodyshop)

You may Notice it says KoyoRad istead of Koyo but this is because the company had to change their name as there was another company called Koyo (do bearings I think) So now they are all called Koyorad, I was hoping for an older one as I think Koyo looks better then Koyrad
