Title: Bonnet ornament Post by: collecta on May 03, 2014, 12:17:17 AM Hi can anyone help me out with a bonnet ornament to suit FE. Doesn't have to be perfect some mild pitting OK, but must have good chrome.

Cheers, Graham Title: Re: Bonnet ornament Post by: hsv-001 on May 03, 2014, 09:40:32 AM If you cant find one you can always use a wind splitter from the front guard of a "E" model Vauxhall . I got this from a woman who claimed her dad bought a FE ute new and the dealer put it on the bonnet for him .

Thanks Hadyn I have a couple but they are badly pitted. I need this for my stock ute so original is best. I like the way they fit the badge housing. Ideally i'm chasing three for other projects as well. cheers Scott Title: Re: Bonnet ornament Post by: collecta on May 12, 2014, 11:48:48 PM Any luck Graham
