Bonnet Vents
I got mine from dan at duck worth too. Top international service from that guy! I feel like the biggest downer of a 5 door buy is the bonnet. To be honest the fact that it is functional on the coupe doesn't excite me, it's the overall aggressive stance of the beast with the vents. I'm going to start the process of cutting off all the clip mechanisms on mine and hopefully find some good double sided tape and vinyl for underneath and we are good to go!

RE: Bonnet Vents
Powerful uk are now selling them on their website with the double sided tape already fitted to them and they come in black and silver. Can't remember the exact price around £80 if my memory serves me correctly.
Just checked and there only £48 come in black and chrome.

RE: Bonnet Vents
Brought some recently from Powerful uk for £48 with free P&P and have to admit like the quality and look.
They come with templates so that they fit in the correct position and takes as long as 5 mins to fit

thanks for the feedback musher, can you post some photos of your evoque with the vents fitted? I am thinking of ordering a pair.

RE: Bonnet Vents
@CSJ - they look a bit on the small side - are they identical to the genuine OEM coupe version? I'm not sure I like them. I think I'd want to get a Coupe bonnet complete if I was going to do it.

RE: Bonnet Vents
each to their own - I can think of lots of better things to do with £1000 than buy a new bonnet with two plastic inserts which have no engineering use and are purely cosmetic tho. The 5 door looks fine without them but having put them on I have had plenty of compliments about the car
if you want the genuine LR ones then the only effective way to do it is buy a new bonnet
the only thing I can say is that it is only people who really know the RRE coupe that would spot that they are not original - three guys at two dealerships have made comments to me that they did not realise and thought it was just a new option for the 5 door
