boots on the Front shocks and on the Steering arms.

Self amagumating tape on the top joint and edging trim on the leading edges of the Chassis pickup of the top arm.

Oh and SVA covers on all the bolts.

The only bit I can see that is exposed that is not exposed on the later nose is arrowed. So maybe a bit of glued on rubber over it and then cover the usual suspects around the rest of the steering and suspension.
Steve,

Steve,


Yup I had that 'possible problem' with the 'ears', and did exactly that! ...... covered the arrowed bit in 'flat' rubber, making sure the edges were well covered....... needless to say it ... errrrm... fell off sometime after SVA!

Just make it look as though its a permanent fixture.....that is, nice and neat

If you look at mine, I made some ally protectors for my 'ears'. SVA bloke liked 'em. They're still on 2 years later!

Pardon, James?

I sculpted some plastic offcuts into a nicely rounded shape and glued them onto the ears. Chose the glue carefully so that it could be easily removed once the shapes "fell off" (I used Bostik, I think)
