Raider Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 What can be done with my TR7's hood? - it's a mohair hood in good condition but the rear screen is splitting away from the fabric (see photo).Would a trimmer be able to sort this out with the hood still on the car for example?

Rumpith Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 Hi Martin, We had a cracked rear screen on the Boxster and a local guy stitched in a new one. He could probably fix this fairly cheaply... Have a work with Nick Smallbone at Smallbone Cars in Gisburn, he'll give you the number...

ferny Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 Yeah. Unlike a cheap vinyl hood that's stitched so should be replaceable easily. The vinyl ones can't because it's heat sealed. :-/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raider Posted February 3, 2013 Author Share Posted February 3, 2013 Thanks Jon. Good to see the Acclaim in use earlier ;)Here's the same picture in a more normal aspect which will look a bit more understandable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
