SamboVr6 0 Posted December 10, 2009 Report Share Posted December 10, 2009 Hello!! Sorry to go off topic but i have seen you driving around!! I live in Ripon but spend most of my time cruising round harrogate. :-dAnyhoo, back to the subject, i think black bonnets look good and most taxis that i have seen with black bonnets have been white so there is no worries on that score. It's not going to look too majorly different as you have quite a dark colour car already. I think it would look good. I have tried to find a pic for you but i can't :-( Link to post Share on other sites

hvr6 88 Posted December 10, 2009 Report Share Posted December 10, 2009 an interesting one I'd say save for the respray as not sure bout the black bonnet.. personal taste..I think this looks ok...but these however look awful lol...:-) Link to post Share on other sites
VR6Nat 9 Posted December 10, 2009 Report Share Posted December 10, 2009 personally id wait and have the respray.... carbon wrap is a massive no no in my view.... people going 'ohhhh carbon bonnet' then you having to say, 'well, no, its just wrapped' will be a bit gutting....better doin the real thing, or painting it.... black bonnets can look ok, but can look shockin too... up to you if you spend the 45 squids and risk it lookin pants or just save up for a propa spray job....
