Wrap your bonnet

A carbon fibre or matte black bonnet is one of the most recognisable modifications in the car world, and one of the easiest to do well: the bonnet is large, almost flat and easy to work on. Our 152 cm wide roll covers the bonnet of almost any car in one piece, and with 2 m you have spare to try again if something doesn't go right first time.

Finishes for the bonnet

  • Carbon: Premium gloss looks like lacquered carbon; Premium matte is more racing.
  • Matte or satin black: the anti-glare competition look.
  • Matching the roof: the same vinyl as on the roof gives a very clean two-tone look.
  • Stripes: two bands over the bonnet and roof, like our racing stripes.

How much do you need?

  • Small cars and hatchbacks: 1.5 m (choose 2 m to be safe).
  • Saloons, SUVs and long bonnets: 2 m.
  • Matching bonnet and roof: 3 or 5 m, depending on the car.

How to wrap a bonnet

Wash and degrease it, including the edges underneath. Lay the vinyl centred, peel the backing from the middle and press outwards with the squeegee. On creases and corners, warm the film so it stretches. Fold 2 or 3 cm under the edge of the bonnet and trim: that way the edge doesn't show and the wind won't lift it.

Frequently asked questions

How much vinyl do I need for the bonnet?

1.5 m is enough for most cars, but we recommend 2 m (€69.99) to give you some margin. At 152 cm wide it covers the bonnet from side to side.

Can it handle the heat from the engine?

Yes. The heat that reaches the bonnet panel is far below what the vinyl can take. The sun is what wears it most, and a quality film lasts several years.

Can you tell carbon vinyl isn't real?

From a couple of metres away, Premium carbon is very hard to tell from the real thing, especially in gloss. Up close you can see it's flat, but the effect is very convincing.

Can I wrap the bonnet with the car parked outside?

It's better under cover and out of the wind, at a temperature between 15 and 25 °C. Dust and wind are the enemies of wrapping.
