#1 Front wing seperators

Post by alunwill » Tue Dec 09, 2025 6:05 pm

Does anyone have the part number for the spacers between centre panel and wings which allow the chrome bead to fit.

Many thanks

And available from lots of sources rather than buying expensive OEM. It’s just a thickish washer

Edited, needing some replacement brass clips to hold the chrome strip in place I made my own from a sheet of brass. So much cheaper than buying from the usuals.

And given the rust trap this particular area is, I used nylon washers when I rebuilt my bonnet.

Many thanks for the responses. I like the idea of the nylon washers. The brass clips is a sensible option.

Stainless is another option, including for the bolts/nuts/washers holding the panels together
