right all you lot who think original is always better then dont bother posting he's asking a genuine question simple to answer no need for "its wank" even if u think it is the lads made 8n posts u think he's gunna hang around long if u start off like this ??

in regards to the question u have 2 ways of making the bonnet

1. splitt the 2 skins of the bonnet cut a sheet of metal to the desired length ect prime it in "weld through primer" then slide it in between the 2 skins weld it on and fill it to look correct then prime and paint

or

2.cut a peice of metal to the exact shape u want (following the lines of the bonnet around the headlamps) and then the straight edg (or whatever shape u wish the bad boy to be) and then mig weld it to the bonnet above the head lamps then fill prime and paint

and about the mot im 99$ sure that aslong as the bad boy dosent affect the beam pattern of the head lights it wont fail (please correct me if i am wrong )

hope this helps

Come on guys the styling isn't to a lot of peoples taste but it's comments like this that mean new users don't stick about. My bro and his missus both signed up and neither use the board anymore because of this sort of stuff.

Never knock yellow, when done right









Guess you aint got the face to drive it then?

And no disrespect, i dont believe in knocking people in what they do, but if my mate was gona do something that hes gona regret i would tell him straight.


So, no disrespect, but bad boy bonnets went out with the arc.
S2 is becoming classic
Dont mess something up that already looks good
