hiya,
im considering gettin hold of sum mk2 astra GTE bonnet vents to stick on my nova does n1 know where you can get hold of them and how much the hole job wud cost
cheers
when you say "stick" on are you saying you want neddy boy racer vents or actual working ones?
Working ones - try a scrappy or after market car stores (back of car mags).
bopdy shop would prob charge you about ?100 - need to cut holes in yer bonnet and then fit vent. Why not just to it yerself.
All youve got to do it seal the edges of the bare metal after cutting and then colour match the vents

:lol:
Where my vents sit in the bonnet cut out, ive got metal sorta mesh across the hole so no c***ts can rip off the vent then cut my engine wires inside. Just heard it happened to someone round my end. Although im not sure how hard a beatin it would take before it snaps lol worth a try
