Won't it be a pain to reach the bonnet catch with that in the way though?

yes.... but thats not the point

think of how much cash you have to throw at it to acheive that look... with a car thats probably worth all of a grand

tis not about practicality or value

It just goes over the headlamps and grille. Its just basically a bit of metal welded on the end of the bonnet. In very very simple terms that is. It needs to be cut, shaped, blended, primered painted and probably other things too.

sometimes, u have to give up practicality for looks! another example would have to be speed bumps with lowered suspension
