after what happened to my bonnet: and then after getting creative with it a few weeks back: i thought id better getting cracking on the bonnet i brought off ebay, as although it was new old stock, it was a bit crusty after sitting in the loft for a few decades: got off my yesterday and started getting it sorted, it now looks like this: that is hactually satin, but is still drying, so looks shiney, just need to get some 2x2" silver squares and the 76 logo and itll look like this:

light brows are no longer on the car, i took them off last week.
i used a mates compressor and a litre of autopaint satin black, still got nearly a litre left tho, but was only a tenner and worked out a lot cheaper than 3 cans of halfrauds satin black at £7.50 a can

That bonnet mascot is awfully huge though, does it cause a bit of a blind spot?
