If you can get pulled up for having dirty headlamps then how can it be legal to cover a proportion of the lens with one of these bonnets?
The lens covers that look like "quad lights" are even worse.
As for the aesthetics then each to his own.

I'd rather have a 'naughty girl' on my bonnet.

If you're referring to the lifted back of the bonnet, I believe that is an additional 'feature' enjoyed by chav tw@s. It's that 'slightly open for extra cooling' look, innit.

I have to say i quiet like the paint job, although I personally wouldn't have used quite so much flake...

... unfortunately that's where the good bit ends. The shape is horrible, the part over the headlights looks all wrong and the shut lines just make it look like the cars been in an accident. And while I like the paint job on the bonnet for goodness sake either paint the whole car or don't bother. Just doing the bonnet just leaves the impression the job was started but never finished.

No accounting for taste I suppose.

I found out today that was the style, I thought they'd been in a shunt and not bothered to paint the replacement bonnet...

I had a Rover with a Bad Boy Back Door in that case
