Smooth bonnet MkII
 

Fancy getting this done, but im not sure... are there problems with the engine overheating? How do u open the bonnet!?! Ne pics wud b appreciated!

Bonnet has plenty of room to open from underneath its easy,also im unsure about overheating but my car is going tbe like that this time next week :)

that burnt orange sax looks mint! (2nd pic from the bottom)

looks really nice having that smoothed over. Djflipsaxo also has his smoothed it looks wicked but id be worried about the heat as mine gets hot as it is! Think youd need some functional vents ideally

love the last saxo

out of interest, how much does it generally cost to get it done? Who would do it; a body shop?

yeah a bodyshop is doing mine,not sure how much its costing though.

Hey I have this done on my car. As for cooling goes I have never had a problem but i have a vent in the top of the bonnet aswell so that may make up for it a bit? Most good body shops will do it, ethier with a new bonnet skin or by welding a plate in. If they do weld it make sure they weld the full way round the plate and not just spot it as that leads to cracks. Opening the bonnet is easy, just extend the bonnet catch, I made a new one for mine. Cost can vary mate depending on who does it, unfortunatly a good job aint cheap though.

I would a pic up mate but I just dont get on with putting pictures up on this site! lol
