New bonnet on, carbon sexyness

[golf-sib]

Me and s-l-i-x on here got down to business, with the bonnet at the house and the carbon wrap with advice and a guide from stainesy (much credit). we got cracking right away with the wrapping, which took a coffee break and some fiddling. Got there in the end and I was chuffed.

Took a few quick photo's before the change over, poor quality though

My ruined bonnet:


The new sexy carbon one:


Bonnet off and ready for swap:



























Now for the lolz and rolflcopter.

I sourced the bonnet from a cabriolet without much thought, turns out the bonnet has different clips and is a different size all together, its longer and narrows more 

So now I have a mk3.5 bonnet for sale, followed by a journey in a KA up north for a wedding as I'm not driving the golf now, followed by I just put a big scratch in my rear n/s panel due to a broken railway fence in the bushes... the fun never ends! Good news is, I still have a sense off humour

haha, I blame VW for a botch mk4 Cabriolet that has a completely different front end demension yet looks like a mk4 and uses a Mike|3oat chassis... my fault for not researching, I assumed they where identical as they looked identical even when parked up next to a Cabriolet at the magestrates, but it makes good forum humour!

Good news is I'm picking up a "real" mk4 bonnet tonight and will be reppin dragon green till more carbon wrap comes
