The mould will be made of fibre glass. As far as I understand the origional bonnet will be the same. The origional bonnet wont be damaged in any way.

caveat: when fibreglass dries it contracts - and the fibre might make little spiderweb marks on the paint... i haven't used a mould that had paint on it, so i'm guessing. one time i started making lights and the one that i used ended up duller than the other. that I could polish out... but paint?

maybe they should put a plastic sheet over first... dunno
