The previous owner of my Plus 8 had a "Easy up" hood fitted by Allon White Sports Cars and a great hood it is. However the original tonneau cover did not fit the new hood and as I like to have a cover on when blatting on my own or when leaving it parked in town, it has irked me since we purchased the car.
Today however a local Auto Trimmer was able to make an addition to the cover to fit over the folded hood using material we supplied from the spare wheel cover which we have never used. This matched the material of the tonneau cover which it seems is not available in New Zealand.
She carefully cut the wheel cover to make enough to cut off the existing edges and extend them to fit. She still has to punch out the holes for the fasteners but we will take it back for that when they get the appropriate punch.
That should then tighten up the cover and loose the creases. I managed a quick acceleration on the way back to the speeds that plus 8s like and the cover stayed where it should be.
Looking forward to using it a lot, (I tried to upload two photos from "imgur" but no success there).
Happy Miles.
