Bonnet Art

[Fordo]

Took a few snaps while cleaning a new bonnet to go on my car:













Anyone guess the car it was going on (without peeking at my profile)

Water drops can look really stunning on waxed paintwork- theres a nice ad on tv at the moment, with rain drops changing colour down the side of a car. Cant remeber the car at all though!

Anyone else got any water drop related photos?

I like the contrasting blue/yellow/green in the first and second pics.

Without looking at your profile, is that a bonnet for an old ford sierra?

close- a rover 420 turbo

old bonnet had paint peel after removing le mans stickers, managed to aquire, for free, a replacement. Although replacement doesnt have bonnet buldge, so its gone from this:



to this:



- Now, only the intercooler in the bottom of the bumper gives away that theres anything interesting going on under the bonnet!

As much as i love driving a Q car, its a real shame it has the uglyest car logo ever! Honestly, what was rover thinking? I could draw a better logo with my foot!

I love some of those logo photos above.

Heres one i took a while ago, before i even had a decent camera!:

Hmm, i think you should take your car back to the spray shop- that paint is bubbling pretty badly
