I think the result is exceptional to be honest and I'm when he told me he was using cotton gloves to insall stuff I knew I had it at the right place.

They all get taped up and handled with gloves/blankets/rags etc. Get everything done then add the bling at the end. Takes more time but makes for a perfect end result 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It should get rid of a bunch of heat from the hot side too which is handy. Where did you get it done? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ordered it in January and he only finished it last week. Works on his own and is flat out. It's a steel XR8 bonnet with fiberglass vents and powder coated grills. As you said hopefully it will get some of the heat out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aaron aka JETURBO for all the engine and fabrication work. Words are not enough to express how grateful I am for the time and effort that Aaron put into this car. The result is something to behold. Thanks mate. * Paul @ PE Customs in Brisbane for the paint job which is perfection personified * Mike @ Mike Savage Custom Bonnets at Bargo in NSW. It’s a hybrid design we cooked up that actually works. It’s that heavy I had to get new bonnet struts to hold it up lol. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
