KJ,

Hope it's not too coronary inducing mate!

I read the thread on mini2 and seen you had made contact already, just wondered how bad the cost would be.

Wonder how the dash section would react with the heat and sunlight during summer? I'd imagine it would be very thin (2 - 3 mm?), maybe susceptible to warping?

Would be interested to see it, but that might just encourage my carbon addiction again!!

Cheers!

Scott

Has anyone seen the bonnet fitted in real life up close.

Just wondering what you thought I saw one last Saturday on a Clio. Sits a the renault garage in Stirling.

Just something seemed strange about it think the whole car needed to be CF.

just depends really. you can have the cf bonnet just slapped on or you can make it blend in with the rest of the car. i guess if you have cash you can spunk a pile of cash on it and turn the whole car CF. But that'd be stupid.

Besides, you were looking at a Clio, the whole car needs to be changed. :D

CF bonnet is a good piece of functional kit. but its a risky mod looks wise.

the quality looks quite good also. especially the dash. i wonder though if its coated with anti fade lacquer so it doesnt go all grey in the sun.
