MkII Head Fins

#1 PostAuthor: nicomkii » Sat Dec 27, 2014 1:31 am

Needing to finish of the outer fins on the head of my A3 MkII. See a mixture of photos on site with fins left painted but can't find any that are bare and how far around they go. Been 25 odd years since I had mine and no way is my memory that good !!!
Can someone help out with high res photo showing how far around they go pls.

Also what do people think is the best way of bringing mine back, wet and dry is the way Im thinking.
