I don't suppose anyone knows the dimensions of the bonnet , I am going to carbon wrap it but don't know how much to order... I don't have my car at the moment otherwise I would measure it myself

Off my head I think the 4g bonnet is 1.5m by 1.2m ish
It's deffo over the stock vinyl width of 1.5m by 1m as it comes in the running metre normally
This is off the top of my head though, but deffo over a set metre of wrap vinyl

please let us know the results you get!
tried the 4d on my sons and it was a bit thin and was not sticky enough in some places so started to bubble after a week around the tight edges
the stuff i used 3M Di-Noc seemed a lot thicker/heavy duty and have had no problem with it and is 2 years on now

Any chance of a link to the website where you got yours mate? Am thinking of doing this myself, as bonnet is scratched.

Shameless plug, but if someone needs a decent condition bonnet to try it out on, I'm practically tripping over mine in the garage since removing it. Free to a good home that can collect.
