Dull bonnet.

Does anyone else have a dull bonnet?? Been told that it is because it is fibre-glass, but ain't seen another 480 looking the same. Maybe it has been badly respayed in the past. Any recommendations on how to restore it back to it's proper condition??!!

My bonnet went dull as did one of my pop ups on my red car. Used a bit of colour restorer (the type that removes a bit of teh paint) and then gave it a good polish with autogleam. Brought it up well and lasted my ownership of the car! The rest of the car was pink but that came out with a good polish!

Somebody's sig also used to read something like "damn bonnet is matt" - Turnac i think.

Mine was pink when i got the car...i used farecla to cut it back then colour magic wax to seal.
