its fooking bad isnt it man. Andy who had it before me pissed off his nabours (probly just revved the fuck out of it on the drive) got paint stripper thrown all over it, then he decided it would be a good idea to, in his words, "do the prep work for the body shop" sanded it to bare metal, left it outside for another year and thats what happend. Think its new bonnet tbh but the rust will come off with a sanding. Need to see how deep it is as it feels and looks like surface rust :/
