I have just bought some astra gsi style bonnet vents that i think are the stick on type,lol, but i want them smoothed into my bonnet, how do i do this and what things do i need?, i.e type of filler etc, and are they hard to cut in? if so is there any point in having them on my bonnet if they are not functional?

Cheers Jono.

if theyre not functional I wouldnt bother personally.

All they'll do is get manky after a while.

You could blend them in but for the faff of it you may as well spend the cash getting a proper set and have them blended into the bonnet by a body shop. Its gonna need respraying anyway after you've blended them so I'd save up and get it done properly.

just my opinion mind...

GSI vents really suit the nova, but buy some functioning ones there much better
