   lol please don't do those chevrons on the bonnet.
   
   A nice job on the badboy would look good though.

   I think you should do all the ideas that you have,get all of the bad mods out of your system and then make your next car nice

    Make the chevrons smaller and put at an angle towards a corner or something, if you really want to do something like that!! Dont have them that big!!! Each to their own but i wouldn't have the chevrons!! Like the eyelid idea on the bonnet!! I am going to get that done!!!

    Why not have the chevrons but make them small and have a set at each side of the bonnet? Sorry but don't like the huge big ones. And what about a meshed grill?

    i would just double the size of the standard size of the chevrons on the front, and stick em at the front of the bonnet, bt i ifnk it would more suit a mk2

    Why not have some small chevrons at one side of the bonnet at the front. Or get some louvres like simo has on his bonnet.
    
    For what you posted originally I would say at least 300-400+.
