Seeing that you are going to drill it, I suppose you are trying some new, temporary mods?? As an idea... Would it be possible to make one out of fibreglass and paint it silver?
Kind Regards,

keith you dont need to drill it
i have the stuff that keeps the kit on my bttf 3 car as well

Thought the BTTF 3 stuff on the bonnet was the 1955 equivalent of a silicone chip.
If you watch the movie I'm sure its held on with leather straps, similar to the bonnet straps on a 1930's blower bentley. You dont need to drill the bonnet. Strap it like in the movie and put velcro or something under the prop as well if you like, but if you take a drill to it your crazy. D

The thought of drilling into a hood makes me cringe. Baaad idea Velcro sounds like a good option combined with the straps as seen in the film I recon that would be fine.

hi
i know we do not really look ar value associated with our cars, but a good nick hood say gasflap is £800 or so? drilled would be near worthless, and would need Chris Nicholson to weld and repair. but then it is yours to do as you see fit steve

I wonder based on Zippy's silence if he has already got his Black and Wrecker out?
