My bonnet is stone chipped at the front and needs re painting,also the lip is just starting to rust so it needs a refurb......was thinking of having a badboy bonnet done at the same time......how is this done?? by modifying the existing bonnet or buying a badboy bonnet??
Don't know much about them........any help..direction appreciated
Also does anyone know how much it costs????????
Cheers

I vote yes 
Yes you modify the original bonnet, If you supply the bonnet i could have it badboy'd & Sprayed for £150

weld 'eyebrows' onto your existing bonnet, smooth over, prime and paint.
i myself, prefer badboy and extended 
this is what i want done:

excuse the bad photoshop, but overall it looks so much better and meaner
