    Finally got around to knocking all the dints and all the slashed through the bonnet. I knocked it all out, and body-fillered the holes. Came out came out really smooth.

    Instead of paying 300 to respray the bonnet, i used a fraction of that for a big sheet of CF vinyl wrap.
    Me and a mate wrapped my bonnet today and came out amazing !!

    Thanks for all the kind words guys.

    Just a bit curious, i have really stiff suspension at the front, almost no movement. Apart from me jumping around in the car over every bump i hit, and looking like i've got hydraulics in my seats, is it bad to have stiff front suspension?

    I mean the struts, or anything like that?

    Id be more worried about the Strut Towers on the body cracking under the stiffness.
