Hi All, please forgive the spelling / description.

I'm very happy with the 350i in it's original state but the only thing I hanker after is a vented bonnet as I love the slighty more agressive appearence it offers and the breaking up of the large surface area of bonnet. Just my own opinion and I know others would not agree.

Question is , does anybody have one for sale ?? I know I can get a new bonnet and/or vents put into my existing, but I really want a second bonnet that I can get sprayed up as I don't want to mess with the original.

Condition of paintwork not important as will beb getting professionally re-sprayed

Hoping, the response it not rare as hens teeth !!

Cheers All

Jeremy

Hi,
This guy does a 400SE bonnet

Or

The individual bonnet vents for £35 each if you fancy fitting and spraying.
Hope this helps
Jon.

I guess its more work but if you fit a vent in your existing bonnet then at least you can put it wherever you need/want it..Ziga

Work in progress....got the shape and location sorted now for the final prep and finish. A black mesh grill will be bonded on the underside after the whole car has been resprayed ready for the spring/summer.

Now that'll get the traditionalists up in arms! hehe
Looks good though, make sure you keep us up to date with your progress thumbup
The other thing I noticed is that you've got some very unusual mirrors on there as well confused
