100% not legal
as engine parts are classed as sharp and jagged edges!
also, what would happen if a little kid stuck his hand on top of your ex manifold whilst car was parked up!
even bonnet scoops are made of fibreglass or similar material which will collapse on impact.
thats why the old style badges that used to be on jags, rollers, chevys etc are now all illegal!
the new style badges will collapse and fold on impact.
but having said that......if a car was built with ie a supercharger as standard, and the blower was poking out the top of the bonnet (prior to this law) then that would be legal to drive, as are old marques fitted as standard to their respective vehicles!
my my one does sound clever, does'nt one!:shock: :lol: :lol:

why thankyou most sincerely, kind sir.
would however wish to pass comment on ones rather appauling spelling error!
the offending word being (corect) this word should be spelt as 'correct' i would however guess that this was an oversight on your behalf, and trust that this occurence will not happen again!
after all we are all of the human species (well some of us) and are therefore inclined to make errors at some point in our natural existence.
but on this occasion you will be granted a full unbinding pardon, and may continue to use this forum at your own leisure!
