What Does You guys think of this for a possible bonnet vent, My bonnet has stab marks on it from a screwdriver, and i cant afford a new bonnet yet or the repair, But i could do this in my work at next to Zero cost.

I would use a different font and it would be mesh under the stencil cut letters.

I like it but my mate thinks it looks hiddious(sp) So some opinions and comments please, good or bad.

I think you'd be better off with symmetrical cut-outs if you're going to do it.

Why not just do a couple of standard shaped vents (of course you could jazz em up a bit)? that'd look better, but that's just my opinion.

if you like it - go for it!

I thought about the cossie style vents but i want something different. I also like the thought of a custom style vent. But i not sure about that either.

how about this then: smooth the stab marks, then get a vinyl made up - very cheap and you can do anything you want.

would look the business, and you still have a sellable bonnet (or one you can respray when you have the money)
