TBH a carbon look one would be very diificult to get looking good as one large piece if film would be needed to go on top of the bonnet, as multiple sheets of film would look bad due to the lines that would be visible

even a skin looks shit to be honest, My mate ( makes stuff out of carbon, kevlar, fibregalss - basically ne one off in ne material) and I were making a bonnet for mine, did a skin first - turned out shit, quality was excellent and everything, but it just looked stuck on, even tho it lipped over the edge, somehow just didnt look right,

we made a rush job of a full bonnet, really bad weave, but we only did it to get dimensions correct and it looked much betetr
