My mate who has a 1989 Nova SR has decided to buy a Stick on Bonnet Vent. He says it is one where you have to cut a hole in the bonnet to fix it.
Personally I think they look absolutely crap compared to a properly shaped and vented bonnet. And wouldn't dream of putting one on my Corsa.
What is everyones view on them? Has anyone fitted one? and is it difficult to do?
Anyone got any pics?(that we can laugh at)

I don't really agree with real ones unless needed, but never as bad as the fake ones, at least the real ones do something. I think it's just cutting corners, like putting them stick on plastic things on your headlights to make them look like morrietas (spelling?).

Treat the motor like a lady, buy it the best and you get lots of satisfaction ;o).

If you have to cut a hole in the bonnet then its not just a stick on one its a functional one.

Yes stick on ones are cheap tat.

Proper ones look good on the right car.

Unless it's a proper item which serves a purpose, then a waste of cash if u ask me.
