im curretly fitting a bonnet vent to my car, im wanting to make it into a badboy bonnet how is it done, do you just have to make the bits over the headlight or do you have to make a full pannel to go straight across the bonnet. any pics or info would be great.

Strip the paint off where you want to extend the bonnet...

Weld on plates of mild steel in the places which you want extending - shape with fibreglass and smooth out with some P40 filler...
