Urgent Help re bonnet stuck!!!!

As per tittle my bonnet will not open! I pull the leaver inside the car and it makes the normal click noise. I go outside and pull the little leaver and nothing happens!! any ideas how I can open it.

PS not standard bonnet its my new carbon fibre one but the lock is the original!

you need to get someone to pull the lever while you try lift the bonnet with release tab.

if that doesn't work then try release it with screwdriver through catch hole. you might damage the release though.

Well, you were going to do a oil change! Try getting on some ramps and having a fiddle from underneath.

had this last week. someone pulls the catch you pull the lever. inside the bonnet will be 2 black plastic screw things either side. The bonnet over time has probably pushed them in, unscrew them a little. easy peasy
