civicturbo79 Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 I would just sand the bonnet with 500 grit and them stopper up at the bit that need doing and the re-do the bonnet in gloss black . Rich. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr_broon Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 i like the look of the wrap too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CMSCIVICVTI Posted November 11, 2011 Share Posted November 11, 2011 It's a shame the end result isn't as great as you want mate cos it really does look smart . Maybe getting them sprayed would be a better option but i still think red carbon wrap would look the muts on her!And i hope your missis don't mind bonnets in the front room seen as it will be mine in a few weeks lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johngreen537 Posted November 11, 2011 Author Share Posted November 11, 2011 lol mate. She drew the line at a head being cleaned in the bath once, body panels in the front room is pretty normal for me though I've just ordered another roll of carbon, CBA with the hassle of the sanding / respraying in the winter, so going to worry about it in the spring If it was only minor defects on the bonnet, I wouldn't be too fussed, bit it is truly shocking!

johngreen537 Posted November 24, 2011 Author Share Posted November 24, 2011 Sorry not been around much chaps, been stooooopid busy.Few minor updates though.Bought some Eibach 30mm Progressive springs, not fitted yet, too busy even for that! Off over christmas, so at the latest, they'll be on then.My Prem seats got busted on passenger side, the back tilter was wobbly as hell, so I've ditched them, and bought something MUCH more fun My VTEC now goes BWAAAAAAAA WAAAAAAA WAAAAAAAACan you guess what it is yet......BIG FAT SHINEY CARBON Tegiwa M (GruppeM replica)Makes sooooooooo much noise it's UNREAL!Actually can't hear my exhaust (with DECAT / MANI) now in VTEC. It's stupid. First time it cam in I nearly crashed. was laughing sooo hard I was crying!Just need to fabricate a scoop as I didn't get on included. Got it at another bargain price Also bought some steel braided HEL brake lines, just not got round to putting them on either. Will most probably do at the same as the springs Car running, nothing short of beuatiful now. Just need to sort out the paintwork and redo the bonnet.Next up...... hmmmm. I'll keep you posted. No doubt it'll be rediculous! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
