remember though that if its so bad it fails the mot, then its also dangerous to drive with.
anyone who's used to driving their brav at night will agree the lights are pretty poor to start with. Also, you can get pulled by the police and given a producer if your car looks like it'd fail safety tests. a bad boy bonnet is quite a dramatic cosmetic change and the cops WILL pick up on it.
another consideration is that you will probably loose airflow into the engine bay and induction it, so adding a cold air feed onto an induction kit would be a good idea.

i have to agree with the above, i have first hand experience of this as my car has a "bad" boy bonnet on, the car is constantly overheating with the fan on, although this maybe due to the front bumper i have, also the headlight vision is cut out a fair bit, even though i do have the marea lights!
In my personal opinion it does look awesome tho!

lift ur bonnet look at the fair duct behind ur bonnet.
( ryan ur overheating prob will be part of the bonnet where its all smoothed in where the grill is )

is there not an intake pipe that goes down near the bumper too? I'm sure I ripped one out mine a few months back when I removed the whole airbox...I can't remember I was seeing red with frustration!!
