just before any1 orders one, DONT!! mine has been in the bodyshop for 2 weeks now! been there to c it today, and its getting to look like a bonnet!! on its 2nd layer of primer after being completely re-filled, with filler!!!! having another tomorrow, then sand down, and possibley another after that, just to get all the RIPPLES, BUMPES, CHIPS out of it!!

i PAID £260 for this Bonnet off Ultimate Velocity, expecting it to b the dogs like, and they said yeah it only needs once prim, and paint!! YEAH RIGHT!

i'v heard other ppl have had this problem, SO DONT PURCHASE the F50 BadBoy Bonnet from UV unless u want to spend loads putting it right

I had the same problem but mine was purchased from FFWD the bodyshop said it was shit but got it looking decent, but after half a day on the car it cracked all around the vent and the paint came off I had to have the vent taken out and put it again with some decent filler so that it wouldnt crack when it was on the car, cost me a fookin fortune to get it right

Once again i would not reccomend them, buy your own scoop and have it fitted to your existing bonnet
