This is my first try at putting tha BA bulge onto a full fibreglass fully hinged bonnet on my xr.It still hasn't had a clear coat put on it so is still a bit dull.what do you think?

thanks for the positive remarks guys, as for what it has cost me,well just the paint really as i have the moulds for the bonnet and the bulge at work.It was really only done just to see what it would look like and it turned out a little better than expected.I'm about to start a new project the same but using a steel bonnet and just joining the fibreglass bulge to it.Should be finished in a month or two.As for price for a bonnet in all glass it would be approx $700 or to join the bulge to a supplied steel bonnet would be $250.00.Cheers guys and thanks again.
