I am after a square cut bonnet for an L bug
not this sort
this sort
It is a subtle difference but you can see it where the handle is
The square one has a more "follow the bumper" line and a bump/protusion at the bottom of the handle
I would like a straight one that requires no work - as i already have a slightly damaged one
Dont want holes welded up either

Hi Barry
They are hard to find, I wish Richard would get his finger out and make some Tupperware ones.
Steve
Any reason they are any better?
From your ole' mate Jeff
Jeff, theyre the same hood, its only a cosmetic differnce
just the sqaure cut ones were correct fitment for 75Lbugs
I got one but it doesnt fit into the paint and fit category
vws and and flatbed truck trays dont mix
I just reckon they look better - purely a personal taste
I prefer the way it follows the bumper rather than the 2 swept inserts
Pretty sure they only came out on vary late 74 and 75's
I am doing a bit of a tidy up and if I am goint to spray the bonnent I may as do the one I want and keep this one as a spare
"Richard would get his finger out "

Reckon you will finish your WRX-L first 😂

Took note of mine today - it is the square cut one.
From your ole' mate Jeff
Haha yeah it's Funny cause i never noticed that much untill now all i rember was that our 73L had the square cut bonnet cause i always used to think the bonnet handle shoulda been lower but then our 74L did'nt have the squarecut style bonnet. Personally i like the non square cut style but i love all things from a 75L = ]

Hi
The reason that you sometimes see the later bonnet on earlier cars is because that was all that VW sold as a spare part to the panels shops after a while.
Steve
That would be it steve cause the front end was in a crash and we replaced such as bonnet gaurds apron.
