Wormus - Bonnet was cut by CoolLouvers down near winchester. They are actually based on a turkey farm so if your screamish dont go there! You can take the whole car to them and they will do it there and then for you, just need to get the bonnet painted then.
As for drag slicks, have them but no wheels yet so I will be spectating this time around people, my mates coming up to though in a chipped 335d, that should be good for 12's as its far!!!!!!!! to quick for a smoker.

Update. Just removed both front wheels to clean/polish the calipers and also swap one tire onto a replacement alloy Ive just got (other was dented) and both front tires have bulges on the inside edge!! bks. Apart from not really having the money this month having spent a grand on the car and kitchen already I really dont have the patenience to get this all sorted today as local dealer wont have the size I need (245/30x20) so I will be up to spectate in the M5 now! mad

I'm not being funny but doesn't having all of these other makes and models running defeat the object of a HSV monaro drag day? I can understand if you need to pull your car out at the last min and bring your other so as not to miss the event. However if your cars running well why bring the second car? Just wondered.
