Repainted my bonnet lip today as the last job was horrendous and touched up with brush strokes. I'm actually quite impressed with my work today 🙂

Looking great pal, i sprayed mine a few years ago but it kept getting stone chips, it looked terrible, so I wrapped it with carbon fibre wrap, it's stayed lovely ever since.

 

Nicely done 👍 Looks much better wide mouth style.

Yeh I have layered it with several layers of primer and clearcoat this time if it chips off this time will be going your route I only done it cos I had all the paints available.

I agree cos when I had the lip off I had cleaned up all the old sticky stuff and dirt in there as I had new sticky pads and it looked so weird lol the black breaks it's up. The lugs break so easy though I had to put screws in then snip the end off with pliers then Dremel a hole into the broken lug and screw it back onto the screw fun and games.

Did you do the vents yourself> I want vents on mine but not sure i trust anyone to do it lol.

I've had them done over 2 years now, by a guy who has fitted literally hundreds over the years, he is a totally professional guy. He travels all over the UK arranging meets for people who want them fitted. I don't know if he's still doing them, try searching Facebook for "Nick ST parts" he's the man you need to get in touch with.
