Louvered bonnet

Post by EK283 »

Ok guys,

I've always wanted a louvered bonnet so now is the time 8) 8)

Does anyone know where in Sydney I could get it done without wrecking it.
Some photos of people who have done it before would also be good.

For all interested write this number down 0405533477 Please Tell Dennis that you are ringing because I gave you his number "Harko"

These louvres are the best by far ,they are dye punched rather than roll cut and have perfect shape and contour ,and you guys are just lucky enough to have me as your contact :)
Next time you see a louvred bonnet ask the owner who punched them 8)

Thanks Guys,
Harko I will mention your name for sure. I always loved a louvered bonnet and am still wondering why I havent got one yet :shock: :shock:

Sorry Mal not much progress but its coming. I have some bits and pieces to clear up (replacing the house sewer) then full swing again.

Mal,
No not yet. I just can't get the time lately to do anything.
Kids birthdays weddings you name it its on.

Actually I would like to see some more photos if anyone has some just to compare what they look like. I saw one on a EK and and the effect was stolen by the windscreen cowl because on the ek the slots run opposite to what the bonnet will be.

Anyone with a photo or two ???
