No Jon, Brian had it specially made at the factory when new, it's very sleek.

Excellent, well both Mogs look amazing thumbs

The shallow screen also changes the hood profile and frame and side screens.

Clever little tweak.

John, Brian had it sprayed on from new.

My car is going back to the Works shortly for some further work!

Peter liked the exhaust system on my car - expect to hear it on his car soon (!) and the way my car drives now. drive

I liked the suspension changes to his car and must get it fitted to mine! Work is already in hand 🙌

The food at the Mirabelle was up to the usual standard and it was nice to see Peter and his Head Office after a rather long interregnum! 🤩

With the hood up Brian's car does have a more "Gangster" look about it, somehow.

I definitely like the "Morgan" sprayed on to the lower grill - I wonder if I could replace the lower grill on the Aero with a similar element. Much cooler!

I think this hood was developed by Williams.

Gotta say I really like the angle and crop of this Aero image, as it shows off it`s lines wonderfully well, also that there is good detail of the happy crew, adds to the scene greatly...Nice One thumbs

Here's a similar shot I took of the Aero in the garage - changed it to B/W, mainly to blend out the background colours in the garage!

Just had the pleasure of sorting my annual road tax - £600 eek! Finally you can now also use AMEX to pay so at least I get a few points towards my air miles.
