I was thinking of buying an xr8 bonnet and having a vent cut into the bulge. something a little different Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looked awesome. Edited 03/02/08 03:33 AM by ORSMXRT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XR8 bonnet so I have taken it up. But I would like to modify it as suggested above, I found a place that can do the bonnet cut out. Here is what it looks like-The good thing is I will still have the original if I want to go the stock look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
