Defo gotta get me one of those :D

Where did you get it from?

awesome bud, but i reckon u should gettin cf scoops now.


but still awesome:D:)

very nice, I've blagged the photo for the site, hope you don't mind.

Think I might add a section for cf bits, as I think they look really trick.

Is that carbon or photoshop? or am i being rude?:)

Adam

You missed a bit around the right hand (on picture) bonnet vent.

also the right back edge where the wing is?

oooh i hope i'm right or i'm going to look like a right prat:)

aha! you've been rumbled.

nice try though...:D

sorry guys,


yep u r right, its me messing around with photoshop but a couple of u spotted the giveaways i left


i saw a c/f bonnet for sale on american website, gr8 price 650$ down to $450 here

i just ordered STi pedals from them, worked out £71 delivered


just thought i'd post it up here and see the comments.


it does look good dont it

Where can I get one of those rear wings? Apologies but Ive pinched a pic of it to aid my quest in the Styling section...

lol, not a bad ps job tho, all the same.

lol!

As I posted at half past seven in the morning I think I can be excused for not realising it was a Photoshop effort. ;)

Does look good, though. :)

Nice, and only a shade over £300 (before tax, duty etc). I wonder what they'd charge for US->UK shipping?

Dont go gettin any ideas of buyin one.

dont worry deb i aint, just wondered wot others thought, i'm not too keen on it.

carriage is 150$

rumbled :D

:)

IMHO whether a carbon bonnet / scoop etc... improves the look of the car comes down to the colour that the rest of the car is in. Deep Blue, Black & Steel Blue (to name just 3) would look OK with a bit of carbon here or there. Silver on the otherhand doesnt.

...but thats just me.

Lol at Mark.

If you are thinking about a genuine though mark, me and si may start a group buy as loads of people are interested.

He has a great supplier and could work out £350 for cost of bonnet, carbon scoop and vents, inc vat and delivery into the uk! :D

He has already got one for himself and has had so many people email him that he is thinking about doing it. lol

He is just finding out from his guy in the US :D

Group Buy = :D:D

Group Buy mmmmmmmm :)

You bastids... yeah, I might be tempted at that price! :D

£350 cool......:D, wonder what the weight saving over a steel bonnet would be.

lol! Didnt think that many would be interested. pmsl.

Its no guarantee guys but will see what i can do.

Have you felt your steel bonnet?? The ally ones are ALOT lighter than the steel and the carbon are lighter than the ally.

So basically, the carbon will be a hell of a lot lighter!

I was shocked at how much lighter the STI bonnets were (relative to my UK Turbo bonnet). Also, I've seen references on SN to TSL's carbon bonnets. Specifically, the fact that they're quite substantial - making them similar in weight to the alloy bonnets. Are these carbon bonnets not that thick?

Yes, I've always thought the steel one was flipping heavy, anybody actually know the weight ?

Allan

One carbon bonnet i found was 7.5kg i think.

TSL uses alot of carbon layers on the bonnet so i think thats why its heavier and is the same weight as the ally one.

The guy who has bought the bonnet who we are trying to get the group buy through, his bonnet is definitely lighter than the ally ones
