front strut brace problem

[daniel jephcott]

Hi all tried fitting a sparco strut brace on to my lil bro 1.2 mk 1 clio. before i started drilling i thought i would shut the bonnet and see if its ok... goo thing i did as it wont shut. ive come to the conclusion that its down to the fact my lil bro has a 16v bonnet on so maybe the mouldings different and it fouls the bonnet. anyway round this.

also im still very unsure on how to fit this i mean with the bolts.

cheers

u sure uv got it the right way round? thats the only thing i can think of cause its shaped to fit round the bonnet shape isnt it. if it wont close i suspect itll be on the wrong way round, but failing that not a clue!

i bought it from strutbracer and its meant to be for the 1.2 mk 1 clio
