safcdixon Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 hi, Right ive been looking at my bonnet (its a trd) and i dont like the smaller triangle vents in the middle, so i was wondering if anyone has cut/joined the two small triangle holes into one larger rectangle hole ive uploaded some pics taped so you can get the idea.

johnny g Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 I'd sell your TRD bonnet and then buy a stock one to butcher up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dnk Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 I personally think it will look awfull and lose a lot strength if you do that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
safcdixon Posted August 8, 2011 Author Share Posted August 8, 2011 I think it will look better IMO, but I agree with the strength issue, I've just been having a look and I know it will lose some strength I'm torn with what too do now I dont what it too flex when I'm driving but I think it will look cool and different Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markylee Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 You could turn the triangles into squares, or do as you said and make sure you have a strong wire mesh, that should help with the strength issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
safcdixon Posted August 8, 2011 Author Share Posted August 8, 2011 yeah think i will do that i will just put some thick mesh and fibreglass some light steel in too restore some strength it will be tommorow now though, its good to be different! just finished laying the final coat of paint on my car, yey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abtin90 Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 I agree with Rob leave it how it is. It already looks good, the rectangle isn't to my taste. At the end of the day though it's your car lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
