Bonnet Repair pics

BMJ · 10-05-2012, 03:39 AM

A while back I had my garage door blown into my bonnet. Just got it back from being fixed.

Repairs done by Lightwood Autos in Springvale for $700.. Here are some pics.

Pick of the damage is not very clear.... there was a thin line of damage across 70% of the bonnet, with two small dints on the passenger side just before the bonnet line.

few pics after all fixed.

Colour match looks great - good job

I love the colour, mtech front bar??

Your halos look like mine, the inner ring illuminates quite well but the outer ring is barely noticeable. That annoys me, but what can you do....?

Depends on the angle, but that's as good as you can get on a pre-LCI e92, without taking your headlights out and sending them off to get re-done (after which they'll look better than OEM LCI lol).

Yeh Mtec kit is going to happen, not sure how soon though...

As metioned by BMWGTR, depends on the angle, and light. some times they're as bright as and other times outer rim is dull.
