Yeah, that is rubbish news Sam, though thank god it didnt happen on the motorway at high speed or anything. I know what I'd have effing bricked myself (um... metaphorically of course :)) if that happened to me. I hope that it doesnt set you back too much to put right mate.

Is your car non metalic? Two different types of blacks...You may need to machine polish the car to get a nice "color" match.

Thanks jonjay, yeah my car is non metalic and im sure the bonnet is. Acording to the guy its in good condition, no dents just a few tiny surface straches that will polish out. I always had in my mind that it will need a respray so if it doesnt then its a added bonus

My LCRs got loads of stone chips, not sure if carbon fibre would look a bit naff on the bonnet? Iv been thinking about wrapping it carbon fibre for while. Might do matt black or two matt black stripes. Too OTT? Mines black too

Sorry to jump in on your thread :)
