Bonnet insulation
Hey guys anyone removed the bonnet insulation and any issues with paint or water heat stains or bugs etc? Black stuff on mine looking really tatty and hanging off and showing the yellow fibre glass stuff underneath so wondering whether to just take it off leave it bare....

Get rid. Use very sharp blades to cut the grommets.

Cover your engine over first with a dust sheet.

This modding lark is a slippery slope,just tell your wallet to brace itself.
Have a read of my thread in projects you will see what I mean.
Good luck.
