Hi all just wondering if anybody can point me in the right direction of painting my bonnet black on an orange hatch, how far down the guards does the black stop? Where do you measure from? Wheel arch up or top of guard down ect. Any help would be great thanks

Mask straight ahead from the bottom corners of the windscreen seal and you can't go wrong. It should only be on the tops of the guards for a hatch, different on a sedan

So on a hatch the black out doesnt roll down the guard at all?

NOPE, it looks stupid when it does because it then goes back to the doors which have chrome window surrounds
