Thumbs up Carbon boot and bonnet

Ive been very busy lately, Ive just finished a carbon fibre bootlid for the new age, and almost there with the blobeye bonnet. Im also doing this bonnet to fit the bugeye.
Sorry its taken so long, but have been working through some problems, got it sorted now, you can expect no trapped air bubbles or fish eyes in the finish.

What do you think?

Hi,
Glad you all like it!
I have my carbon wing to go back on, but I dropped it when getting it off the original boot (DOH!) so am respraying it at the moment
Sorry Megabusa, It would have been done 2 weeks ago but my carbon was late, then I had a few problems to work through, and lots of scrap parts!
Ray, I only do a spoiler for the newage at the moment, this one http://www.mroscoobystyling.com/MY01-04RearWing.htm
I may well develop it to fit the classic.
Yes Mark, I do a carbon bonnet for the classic, and am making the mould for the boot at the moment. I do loads of GRP stuff too.
Happy to answer anymore questions,
Thanks, Rob,

Nice! Will you be doing that style bonnet for the classic (classic scoop, not the STi8 style)?

How much lighter are these items than the alloy version that you have taken off? (must be a jap as rear wash wipe )

Any idea on price?

Would look good on my Silver MY02 Jap WRX

Not sure about the classic as I already do this one in full carbon now for the classic http://www.mroscoobystyling.com/MY97...AeroBonnet.htm
Weight wise, these items are equivelant to alloy parts, so it is partly a cosmetic exercise I suppose.
Cant realy post prices on here, but there are plenty of details on my websites.
Illhave some finished pics of the bonnet next week.
Thanks for all the interest,
Rob.

Hey, thats good! Glad you all approve
Now then, who would like to have the first one, at a special price of £400 (rrp £500) and supply me with some pics fitted for my websites?
Just incase there is any confusion, this fits the MY03-05 only.
