Black Bonnet!!!

[AndyV_16V]

For a while now ive wanted a Carbon Fiber Bonnet for my valver! mmmmmm sexy!!!

But im pretty sure to find one would be imposible!

So ive always though about buying it in rolls and sticking it on my original bonnet. Would look real from a distance and though of as a tw*t when realising its fake!

BUT......im not sure if im going blind but are people actually starting to just spray thier bonnets black????? Is this the new fashion??? or a cheaper way to make ur bonnet look carbon from a distance.....a far far distance.

If i went up to someones car with a balck bonnet i wouldnt say sweeeeet! i would say so when u getting it sprayed..........!!!!!!!!
You cant help but think it would look stupid BLACK!

Any comments?.....please help!...set me straight!

Cheers

Andy

That was as it was from the dealer, a standard bonnet un painted. Its red now though.

looked mean though!

I thought it looked really cool. But I can see why he wanted it painted to match the car.

That Cup with the carbon fibre one looks the dogs too.

Has any one else noticed that alot of these cars in car mags now have black bonnets...
