i was going to say the same lol

best bet is buy a mk1 bonnet least that way its debadged or de badge the mk2

[N0V4TAKA]

i think for the min ill leave the black one on then see what it looks like when i get sum black wheels

[epo]

try colour coding other stuff to match

bumpers wing mirrors grill skirts spoiler ect it may work

[Mike.]

mk1 capris make the black bonnet look, look great nova may pull it off, i think it looks good, but maybe even better when you put the bumpers back to the standard grey colour

[Ste L]

yea, could work if you have bumpers wheels etc the same colour, but like it is now, it looks out of place

[ANDYRACER]

Like stated before you need to paint ur wheels and and bumpers black. But imo black bonnets only really work on lairy coloured cars like srimons old orange nova when that had a black bonnet.

[mad-driver]

I say do what epo said, buy a white mk1 bonnet which will hav no badge on it. I want to do that to mine (in black though coz my car is black) coz i hate the vauxhall badge on the front

If you want to remove the bonnet badge do what they did in the haynes max power manual. I did it to my old sr and it look good after i built the paint up level and gave it a t-cut.

If its a proper carbon bonnet, do it; if not, don't.

And what does that involve? Coz i;ve heard people saying they cut it out but that would look s**t as there is a crease down the centre of the bonnet

[Jack]

afaik the badge is held in with two small pins either side, so when you remove the badge you have two small holes left where the pins sat. Shouldn't require any cutting, just a small amount of filling and painting :?

Looks much better with a white bonnet.

So there is no little recess or anything?

No x 1000. However, it's your car and if you like it then do it.

Jim

[Marc]

if you are going for a balck bonnet like other people have said get more black stuff on your car then it might not look so odd ball

[novamadcars]

im with most of them colour coad a few more fings and defo smoked rears side lights :)

[mad-driver]

I hate badboy bonnets they dont do anything for me at all, mind oyu its your car so its upto you. I just feel they spoil most cars

[NovaGuy1400SRi]

on my mk2 k reg nova, when i took the badge off there wern't any holes left behind it!

[goth5552003]

gone with the black 1 mate it will make it look like it has a carbon 1. keep up the good work.

[Marc]

not keen on the badboy bonnet maybe on a ott nova but standard not that keen but you car as long as you like it thats all that matters!

[flair]

i woudnt use either dude, the black one looks cardboard???! the white one is fairly sane, get rid of the badge maybe to and shine down.. ez
