Yea I've always liked this design. But would only do it after my CF bonnet has gone on

So it would have a little step at the joint? or smooth curve with body filler? Love to see the plan or result!

    The aggressive looking bonnet is pretty cool, not something I'd do personally but looks nice regardless!
    That front bumper though is a different story!! 8O I would love one of those, anyone know where to get one?

        That bumper is just a modified prefacelift. They've chopped out the middle section and filled in the sides where it was.

          I've done similar to mine. Bonnet is fibreglass so was easier to work with than the standard steel one .. I just extended the bonnet using fibreglass matting. Had to grind a bit off the top of the headlights as well so the bonnet could close properly but since they are lense-less lights it wasnt too hard a job.

          The finished result ...

          Yep, it has Project F arches fitted. I'll start a different thread to show the car and mods ... its a long list!

          Here's another pic I've found on the bonnet mod. Gives you an idea of the area you need to glass or weld over for the aggressive look ...
