Bonnet

[Jeff1018]

jsut wondering guys im planning to change my bonnet but i dont know what to go...CF is way out of my budget cause they are about almost 2k for my car and that something i dont have lying around....i was thinking of juts buying a black one and sticking it on...what do you guys think....some of my friends think it will look like i got into an accident adn just replaced it with a black one...would also think i would be better of getting a plain one and putting a scoop or anything on it to make it look better....?

a black bonnet is a whole diffrent style itsself.

what car do you have?

and i think it would look mad if u got a black bonnet and boot :P

[selyaT]

Hehehe.

Rob (badboyz) is thinking about painting his bonnet black. I think it would achieve a similar result in terms of looks :)

What colour is your car?

[BigBum]

Seen a few cars with bonnets painted black. Looks hot :)

Or a nice scoop on your original bonnet would look sweet too.

[DHC09]

Yeah a black bonnet on a white or silver car will look hot.. not sure on others tho..

[Suprathai]

Just saw Jeff's car this afternoon...and it looks damn nice. Go for the black bonnet would suit your wheels perfectly. Oh its Silver BTW

[Northy]

so does that mean i can put a white bonnet on mine?

Swap ya????

[Jeff1018]

yeah bought parts of Suprathai today nice dude btw....

yeah my car is silver...with black rims...

thanks for the advice people...i think i might just buy a gen bonnet from somewhere that sells them....and go from there is im going to put a scoop or not see how i go.....

but i think thats where im heading....

you can get it wrapped in carbon fibre quite cheap these days pity your not vic based have a freind that could have done it for ya for 450 with scoop!!

[Jeff1018]

dyam man that would have been heaps good.....i think for that price i might get a new paint job on the bonnet from a mate of mine might put a pearl or something who knows what on it...but prob at the end of the day might jsut leave it black...

[Rolla_Boy]

ye if you want black just paint it dont buy a new one im sure it would be cheaper ot paint than buy

[Jeff1018]

ye if you want black just paint it dont buy a new one im sure it would be cheaper ot paint than buy

nah cause i wanna keep the stock one just incase....a brand new one would only be like 200 or so...and a after market one would be 160....did some calling around...lol

[shaohaok]

paint it in a satin matt black?

or just vinyl sticker the entire bonnet. it's been done.

Really? What choices for scoops does he have?

[Rolla_Boy]

200 for a bonnet, **** message me when you get one

[Suprathai]

I thought a proper CF piece cost somewhere in the mid 1000's. Wow a bonnet for $200...I thought it would of cost more. Also isn't the cost of getting a scoop put onto the bonnet quite pricey??

i thought someone was selling those MADE IN TAIWAN "CF" bonnet on this forum...

they r like 6xx b4....

try that.... it'll at least look better than painting it back... imo....

As Jimmy said i'm still tossing up this idea. I'm afraid my 'muscle car' fanatic father will see what I've done to the car and whack me over the head, calling me a w@nker lol.

I was comtemplating painting the bonnet gloss black, also half the eyelids to match it, and also the trd grille that I have.

My car is red, I thought it'd look nice and aggressive. Still thinking though.
