KR4-GTR Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 (edited) got bored tonight and had a play with photoshop while making a new avatar. you've probably seen it all before, but wouldnt it be cool if you could get actually bonnets like this! i'd buy one in a jiffy! its not the best photoshop job, but just looked cool with the red so i thought i'd share!

funkymonkey Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 you can do it in real life. you need to thermoform lexan onto your existing bonnet then somehow put up with the underbonnet bracing showing thru Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/273696-wouldnt-it-be-cool-if-you-could-get-bonnets-like-this/#findComment-4642623 Share on other sites More sharing options...

KR4-GTR Posted June 8, 2009 Author Share Posted June 8, 2009 looks pretty funky funky monkey! would look cooler if it was brushed like in the pic and slowly faded to clear in the middle though, not just a cut out! if my car was a show car i'd get one made out of lexan or perspex or something just for shows!

funkymonkey Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 I'd be more tempted to cut that bonnet up and make a massive autobots badge with it. but that's just me.

DRD-00F Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 There's a few show cars getting around with lexen bonnets, completely see through... some have whole bonnets, some have large areas like the picture shown up there... not impossible, but I'm pretty sure it's illegal Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/273696-wouldnt-it-be-cool-if-you-could-get-bonnets-like-this/#findComment-4694169 Share on other sites More sharing options...

erik Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 couldn't you use the bracing for a bonnet that has a cut out bit, and just have a see through cover or something and just paint that, so it would look similiar to that? i don't know how o explain my idea but it'd be good.

BlacklistedGTR Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 A few supercars have it like the lambos and corvettes. It would definetly be unique as well on a skyline.
