Ive got one on mine, pretty easy to fit, and fits well.
Isit for a CorsaB?
If so, i wouldnt buy that one in the pic if thats the one your going to buy. There should be a cutout at the front with a moving metal block that has threads in it, so you can screw the bonnet locator into.
Well mine did neway...

ive got one of these but a badboy one fits well etc when i had it sprayed looked mint i asked he guy who sprayed it black for me can i jet wash it etc he was like yeh should be fine but when i went to a car wash place which used a jet spray yesterday it lifted paint in a circle and you can see white now which obviously stands out a mile going to ask him to respray it im guessing we will want bloody paying though will find out soon enough! sorry for the rant but really annoyed!

i think he did to be honest since wouldn't loads of paint come off? he also colour coded the arches etc and they withstood the jetspraying?

either way, why use a jet wash on a recently painted car?
even if the paint is dry, it wont have fully hardened for a good few months.
even then i wont be taking a jet wash near my car

I've fitted one of those.
You will need catches with them type of bonnets.
Don't expect a perfect smooth finish either.
