remembered why my modding always get delayed today, because im always broke and when i do have money, a fair bit has to go into fixing my 1 liter engine. fuel filter was cheap though and that did need replacing, its just about time i did something about the electrical fault in the engine light. taking the bulb out is seeming more preferable to my bank account though.

ok so today i finally got round to starting sanding and spraying my vented bonnet ill have the pictures up when i complete it tomorrow

[tstempt]

So i started out with my new bonnet and sanded some key areas then filled any holes and then spent about 6 and a half hours sanding the filler i put in to get it as smooth as possible

as you can see i put a lot of work into sanding

then the first coat went on in gloss black but i still wasn't completely satisfied with the sanding so i went a and sanded it some more and i believe this was about the 3rd coat of gloss black was wet here and looked amazing

this was the final coat of gloss black before i started lacquer

then the finished bonnet

I didn't think I'd like it tbh, but it's oddly subtle to be fair and suits the car. Love black bonnets!

I expect you're going to make that vent worth something and put your cold air feed through it?

[tstempt]

yeah i probably will at some point but for now its just looking nice

[tstempt]

So i got round to putting a cold air feed in

don't worry I've sprayed the mastic black with very high temperature paint


and i also lowered my car look how good she looks

thanks for taking a look
