Thanks guys

Guard is held together with a clear epoxy, a bit like jb weld. I did have a go at soldering it but it was too tight to get all the joints done clean, if you have ever done this you will know what I mean, soldering aluminium is different to brass etc, main issue was the difference in size of the material.

Update on the grill mounting, I have managed to drill and tap the back of the grill to take m3 screws in the original hood positions, the two bottom ones on each side pick up the hood hinges.

Cheers
Paul
