WANTED! Audi 100 C2 bonnet area plastic shield

c1 yum · 18-09-13, 08:33 PM

Hi all,

The plastic shield has basically disintegrated over the years and is now next to useless.

Does anyone have one for sale in excellent condition or can point me in the direction of a new one?

I would prefer to pick it up to avoid damage, am in SW-London and can travel a reasonable distance to collect.

Thanks very much.

Hi Jack. Thanks for the disappointing news. Do you know what others have done with their shields as I'm sure I can't be the only one who's suffered disintegration?

I think I've found a big design fault with the C2 as drainage has not been thought of at all in the bonnet area :-<

Cheers

Hiya mate,

Quattro777 got one brand new so he may be able to help ( i need one too for my 200

)
the drainage holes on mine are near the battery tray, and under the blower unit

I'm afraid I didn't get a new one.

I need 3. Anyone know of a metal fabricator who could cut the shape from thin aluminium sheet?

^ An ali sheet would be a very good idea. The shape is quite complex though so I wonder how easy it would be to get it done. Someone would have to donate a good one to get an accurate rendition though!
