it will look fugly but as long as it's primed it should do no damage...
The beauty of spending $1200+ on a bonnet is that it will fit like a glove... Nice work of going the genuine item!

i wouldnt drive around without a painted bonnet man. although it wont damage the metal bonnet underneath, im sure its not good to paint a dirty primer later on. unless you plan to sand back the bonnet and start from scratch again later.
