Redlambo Report post Posted January 26, 2015 Mine just has three small nuts on the inside of the bonnet. I was told that the replacement emblems were adhesive however yours look to be original. Maybe somebody cut the studs off and glued yours in place. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LamboCARS Report post Posted February 2, 2015 I have a badge like that in my 1/18 scale car display case ... it does have three small diameter screws at the back with small nuts ... screws are rather long I remember. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redlambo Report post Posted February 12, 2015 Finally got around to taking a photo of the underside of my front bonnet. Sorry it did not come out as crisp as I would have liked. I am a bit puzzled on the photo you have posted as I cannot understand what is going on there. It is as if the bonnet itself is staggered which I know is not the case. Do you know if your car had a front wing on it at one time? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roman Report post Posted February 13, 2015 weird... I think mine looks like kidz. Maybe it has to do with which type of the 18 different hood materials they used? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I expect yours would look a bit different as it is Kevlar, however Kids is an early eighties model car and should be aluminum. I need to take some better photos and post them.

I need to take some better photos and post them. hmmm... You would think that even if they replaced a screw emblem with a stickie, the holes would still be there? Maybe somebody replaced his hood with a kevlar? because that inside looks like mine... (But now that I look at it, other than the screws, yours looks a lot like mine... Wish my car was here... Id run outside at take pictures) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Id run outside at take pictures) maybe when they modified the original bumper in my car and cut the hood to match the bumper shape they actually replaced the bumper for a new one? it feels like it is made of layers and the outside aluminum seems folded on the edges to cover something like a core, no way there are screws under that, nor holes to indicate there used to be screws, mmmh kind of a mistery Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They actually cut into the front bonnet to make it fit the front bumper. Proving once again these cars are certainly unique on a individual basis.

I think mine has some similar features to the silver first FI prototype that was converted to Carbs, the plenum looked very similar, no Lamborghini logo on it, and the bumpers also looked similar, I will get back the hood converted back to Euro specs this month, and I'll post pictures if anybody is interested in seeing this modification Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
