- 4. Paint: Supplied in a raw gel coat finish and painted last, to match your vehicle paint code.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is included?
One H-Style bonnet scoop, supplied in raw gel coat.
How is this different from the VT-VX HDT Style Group A scoop?
The H-Style is a longer wedge that runs from just behind the grille towards the windscreen. The HDT Style Group A scoop is squarer and shorter, and sits on the rear half of the bonnet.
Why is there a modified bottom insert?
The bottom insert panel is modified to help with mounting and alignment on the VT/VX bonnet.
What is the difference between Hand Laid and Chopper Gun?
Chopper guns spray short, random glass strands into a mould, which can leave thin, brittle sections. Our Hand Laid process manually layers continuous glass mat, giving a better resin to glass ratio and higher impact resistance.
Does it come painted?
No. It arrives in a raw gel coat finish. After test-fitting, it needs professional sanding, priming and painting to match your vehicle paint code.
