MK4 Bad Boy Extension.....
« on: 06 December 2007, 16:04 »
has anyone seen the ABS plastic bad boy bonnet extension which goes across the lights and acroos the bottom of the bonnet?

Their mint and i dont fancy welding a bonnet on a new car.. especially not all the way across with the fear of warping the bonnet!!!!

does anyone know where they sell the ABS bonnet extensions??!

IMO I would stay away from abs as the colour match will be crap, just spend the extra dolla and pay for the metal one to be done properly, I am sure Venom do that one too.

I dont believe the Venom pic is using an abs one juding by the finish

well i got a pic off a german site of one on a silver golf which was red...... obviously it needs smoothing in and painting which isnt a problem coz im a wizz with bodywork. just6 i didnt want to weld it because its a big piece and could warp the bonnet so easily.... dont want to run the risk.

so i thought get the plastic one, tiger seal it to the bonnet then smooth it in and paint it! :wink:

You're more worried about warping from welding than you are about having a crappy plastic extension? :laugh:

mk4 bonnet is tough as tanks mate, you'll only run into warping problems if you try to bodge it.

You can probably pick up a cheap bonnet from a scrappers for less than you pay for the stick on plastic thing.
