Miff Posted March 14, 2004 Share Posted March 14, 2004 some git has reversed into grp nosecone causing reasonably large cracks. Obviously they didn't leave any details. Currently looking quite stylish with a clear gaffer tape temporary fix (3 months temporary). Don't particularly want to shell out for a new nosecone as I suspect it will happen again. What's the best way to fix it, do I just apply some fibre-glass to the reverse or does anyone have or know of any novel methods? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leadership Team SLR No.77 Posted March 14, 2004 Leadership Team Share Posted March 14, 2004 Just fibre-glass the reverse as you say, to stabilise the structure again. As far as the front face goes it's a case of trying to hide the any damage with touch-up paint. Stu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

millsn Posted March 14, 2004 Share Posted March 14, 2004 If you can get the right gel colour you can regel the nosecone and allow to dry, then polish it back until you get a shine Nigel Mills - 2.0 Zetec carbs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
