Bonnet bumps
Anyone know anyone who sells glassfibre bonnet bumps?
I'm using a downdraft DGAV and want to cover the air filter to avoid any problems during SVA (and I think they look nice, too!)
cheers,
David

Now, now, Steve, don't get cheeky! 
If I want to do something on a lathe I just wander over to whichever lathe is appropriate* and away I go.
I can't be @rsed to make a plug, make a mould, make the piece, fix the cock-ups I'll invariably make, and so on, all for an plastic inverted pudding
basin!
cheers,
David
* Yes, I have a choice! A 6" Colchester Student (cost me £200) and a 3.875" Zyto (cost me £50).
The big laugh is that my Locost should end up lighter than my big lathe!

It's not the amount of money that bothered me - it's the value for money. I object to paying £9 + P&P + VAT for 10p's worth of aluminium
with a flare at each end.
