Ph1 Aluminium bonnet buying advice please

[nath&alex]

Hi

I have the chance to get hold of a fairly decent condition Ph1 Aluminium bonnet a decent price. My question is apart from being lighter what indicators/part numbers etc would give proof it is a genuine aluminium bonnet?

Cheers

Nath

It can only be genuine.

How will I know that? I've never felt the weight of a ph1 steel bonnet, I haven't even picked up my ph1 yet!!

Just worried and don't want to get ripped off.

There is some light bubbling though from the pictures, is this an issue? I will be getting it resprayed in a different colour anyway

Because they where only made by Renault.

Yeah its pretty obvious. Alloy is around 6kg and steel about 12kg.

 

[Mr R.]

They are lighter.

Magnet is the easiest way. How I checked mine.
