Looks good, I had the same issue with the clamps I just ground the top part off and replaced with a nut and bolt

Keep at it! Sounds like its grinder time for the tie bar! lol
Small road trip tonight got me this. In good condition to be fair, not the usual over faded and scuffed in the front corners. Plus a good price too!!

Also this came on Tuesday. It's an aftermarket option so thought I'd try it out. The black slatted section seems more rubbery than solid plastic but other than that it looks good. At least it came split so easier to paint. Seems better than what's been on offer in recent weeks and all the clips are present.

Aftermarket grilles are like most things and a bit hit-and-miss...
I had one years go that left a rather large gap between the bumper and the bottom of the grille... best offer it up first just in case!
Cheers Will. It's heading to the loft to live for the next few months so best check before I do.
Had some free time in the sun today so gave my fuel tank a quick clean and rub down before a coat of hammerite. 1st coat doesn't look to bad, will give it another just to be safe.

Following on from the fuel tank refurb I found some time to get these bits wire wheeled back to bare metal and double coated in smooth black finish paint

And this is the finished fuel filler neck completed

The calipers are ready for a paint, as well as the front anti roll bar and brackets.
So took a small trip tonight to pick up my eBay win. This £27 Magnex for a MK2 nova. Just given it a quick wipe over but need to clean the tip more as it has some hard on black marks. Not bad for 14 years old!

Looks like a bargain to me.
