i did mine the other week using 1500 wet and dry then 2000 wet and dry then polished them up with some g3 on a machine polisher. went from this to this its worth doing it with a machine polisher if you can get hold of one as mine only took me about half an hour to do both but by hand, you...

it looks the same as whats happens to the clio if im honest. id give it a go as the clio one have a uv protection layer too but that doesnt stop anyone.

i think what they are saying is the carbon fibre skin came off the frame of the bonnet on the motorway so ther is only the underneath of the bonnet left lol
