Hi guys...as above. Wind lifted mine and bent the corners when it slammed into the screen. Thankfully it didn't smash the windscreen or back onto my head :crazy:

Cheers

the bonnet is a big item - might be best to try and find one locally so might want to post up where you are and also what colour :)

That's lucky, if you look at it one way.
I once had the bonnet on a Rover P6 take out the windscreen. Scary. I spent the next few months looking at cars where the bonnet seemed shorter than the screen height and even compiled a list of cars not to buy solely for this reason. Actually, it wasn't a long list!

Location added but will travel if needs be. I also have a T4 Campervan so can tailor a weekend away to get a bonnet. Colour not an issue, as I'm planning a full respray :)
