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

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

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.
