Hey guys, lookin to get a vented bonnet for my 33 soon but really dont want fibreglass as it looks all wavy when painted.

And I dont exactly want carbon fibre because i want my bonnet to be colour coded to the car.

If anybody has any advice/suggestions/information please let me know.

Thanks!

What do you mean by wavy? If the people painting the fibreglass know what they are doing it will turn out fine.

Carbon fibre can be painted over to match your car.

If you know how to metal work, modify your bonnet yourself after looking at the fibreglass/CF ones, otherwise be prepared to pay big $$$ to get this done out of metal.

There is a post here somewere were a guy cut out his bonnet and inserted mesh, in a beemer i think, still retained all reo.

Looked swish to me.

Thinking about doing it myself as f/g and c/f will pull a defect depending on what state your in.

C/F is what looks "wavey" when painted.

F/G is usually smooth.

both can be painted the same colour as the car.

if its legality ur worried about then yeh id not get fibreglass, but my fibreglass bonnet isnt wavey at all,

dodgy thin fiberglass will be wavey as they skimp on layers. get one thats properly made and a good painter to prep it up.
