Default Bugeye carbon bonnet... where? OEM style
Hey guys,

Does anyone know a good quality carbon bonnet manufacturer that makes a OEM style carbon bonnet for the bugeye.

I dont want any silly vents, and certainly dont want any massive scoops either. Just looking for a very high quality replica of the standard item that i can fit my stock bonnet scoop to.

Thanks

Knight-Racer do bonnets. It says at the bottom that not all are listed too. Banzai use them for bonnets in projects and I know of them from the latest issue, 77 "our cars" section.

You can mount the stock scoop on it..

And from my experience of carbon bonnets, they are heavier than the OEM alloy one.

So, as far as I can see, knowing your car and your goals, end of discussion.
