It's just 4 bolts matey. Easiest panel you can remove IMO. Just remember to unplug the washer jets. You'll need someone to help you lift it though.

Word of advice. When you do eventually bolt the carbon one on, lower the bonnet carefully incase the alignment is off. Save yourself a scraped wing. If it's out of line, just slacken the bolts, shift it over, and re-tighten. Normally, the bonnet catch will put it back into line when you close it properly anyway.

also make sure you bonnet catch it alligned well.

when i put my CF bonnet on i shut it and pulled the bonnet catch to open it again and it wouldn't open!

took us 45mins to get it open again by smacking the catch attached to the bonnet with a screw driver to push it back across.

ended up re drilling the catch holes so it lined up properly.

bad thing is, the only way to find out whether its alligned properly is to shut it.
