Hi all

Thanks for all your replies.

I think one in good condition finishes off the bonnet underside rather than having plain old metal.

All my other cars have one and for the Punto it meant buying one for it as it wasn't a std fit.

When they are all shabby they do look untidy though.

I'll stick in a wanted ad and see if some kind person has one for sale for me.

BTW who is Braydon?

I cut up a 940 insulation panel and fitted it into the under-bonnet cutouts using some contact adhesive. Improves the look IMO and makes a noticeable difference to cabin noise.
