Going to get a paint job on my f2 soon, would I have to remove the rivets beforehand or do you think he’d paint around them ? Not keen on seeing bolt heads . Thoughts please lads t  a. |

Some of the models had the brace bolted on as standard

The rivets do look a lot nicer though than the OEM nut/bolt option...

Matt 🧸 I’ve got a mudguard on my F2 which has a plate (item 15 above) which I think came off an 4 model. It differs from above as it has 4 square captive nuts spot welded underneath. Jon |
