bad boy bonnet yes or no?
some mk4s with bad boy bonnets look mint but some dont.
i was thinking about getting 1 as i need a new bonnet, im not sure if i want to keep it standard (probably might) but rearly like the small ones wich ar subtle and not in ure face, what do u think
it would be nice to here what everyone thinks about them.

my view is this...
Bad-boy bonnets look good if the car is lowered alot.
they look abit silly if the car is standard height, or -35mm etc

Agreed,

Which is why i took mine off for the time being last week until i can afford to get me arches pulled and my car slammed.

but go for it mate if ur car is decked, cuz heres a pic of my motor which i photoshopped, i basicall decked her, added fog lights n smoothed the gap between bonnet and plastic extension, and it looks mean but sexual

i think they look nice,,,proper welded and smoothed though, not just rivetted on.

cheers 4 the feedback,

Do u reckon its better to go for plastic extensions then smooth down etc or by an already made bad boy bonnet and just spray it. and how much is this all gunna cost. also do u know the best place to get all this from,

cheers

you wont really get one already done unless there is somebody on here breaking there car and wanting rid of one. However if you do plan on smoothing one onto the bonnet,do not get a plastic one as it will need welding onto the bonnet. You could rivet a plastic one on and smooth it but i wouldnt mind seeing it a month down the line.Im getting a bonnet from a salvage yard and intend on sending it to the bodyshop with the extension and then just send my car in for it painting.Good luck man.
