Morning Rich 
Modern technology eh!
Trouser, individuality is the name of the game mate, as you well know 
Some will like, some will not....
Andi/Christian, looks good, but once again I doubt it will match the colour/weave of my bonnet

This bonnet is a Cusco item, not apexi as somebody stated, Apexi don''t do a Carbon bonnet for the GC AFAIK. Cusco are the only ones that do one with these kind of vents....
look here, the bonnet is available either in FRP or Carbon

Money, you did try looking in Jqpqn, do you mean on the Internet or by actually being there?
If you're talking internet, then it helps if you can read Japanese...but I can assure you Carbon bonnets is mass ware in Japan, much more than in the US, plus there are more different shapes available, not just an exact copy of the original bonnet 9gt-style, wrc style, without scoop for FMIC etc...)

i just bought a carbon bonnet, scoop and vents online from us but got shipped by a m8 for a fraction of the price, the company reckoned over 300 quid to ship it alone.

my bonnet wudnt have been worth buying in us otherwise wudda been 260 quid odd with packing plus another 300 dollars shipping and then u get raped for import tax which is 5% shipping + product cost then 17.5 % of that figure, so on 250 quid about another 80
uk customs take the **** unless u can get the company to send as sample or summin, i get all my dvds as used software samples from dv-depot.com so pay no tax

Relly love that car mate!!! Each time I get a reply notification for this thread I have to look at the pics....
I would vote your car as the best looking, nicely styled without going too much "Fast & Furious"...
Really considering the Cusco bonnett myself now
