Title: Bonnet bra?!?!?
Post by: west_philly on 25 September 2009, 22:43
hi all,

i was wondering if anyone new where to get a half decent bonnet bra for reasonable money. im having trouble finding one, ive only found small really thin ones, but i like the ones with the little triangular sort of blocks on them (if that makes any sense). want to cover up the dents on my bonnet and i think they look cool

Would it not work out cheaper plus look better to pick up a s/h bonnet.

Cheers. I only have a U.S sized plate because I have the U.S style bumper. An original sized plate hides the fact the recess is no longer there lol.

You should be able to get a s/h bonnet for £25 to £50.

Protecting the bonnet from stone chips. Well that's exactly what mine does anyway.

On my previous Golf, the bonnet was absolutely covered in stone chips, so much so that I wanted to replace the bonnet but couldn't find one in green local to me.
When I bought this Golf, I noticed the bonnet was absolutely MINT, so I bought the bra to keep it that way and look after it.
