hey guys, anyone interested in a group buy for vented fibreglass bonnets for either the R32 or R33 or R34? only 5 or more of each at a time unless i can get 5 R32 ppl and 5 R33 ppl etc but 5 is the minimum.

these bonnets are 3-4x lighter then standard metal bonnets so you are shaving alot of weight there.

i need 5 people & pick up in sydney is allowed or extra for delivery anywhere in aus. ill have a definate price tomorow of the total cost per bonnet for 5 people. a $200 deposit is required to hold your spot and to get things moving. if possible i need everything done by late this week and maybe i can stretch it to next friday. it will take around 3 months or so to get it moulded, copied, made, prepped and sent back here.

tell me which one you most prefer and unforunately all 5 have to be the same style vent!

these are the vents available - i can possibly add little vents in like the R34 GTR VSPEC NUR on the passenger side - tell me what you guys would prefer and that will determine the total price (ranging from $470-$550) and final outcome of the bonnet. so out of the 5 people, decide which vent you guys want and how you's would want the bonnet to look.

there contact number is 9609 6096

Start date whenever and end date is 3-4months from the day i get them sent off. will give a definate date when i get everything ready (meaning if i get all the bonnets and ppl organised)

I can also get cheap discount prices on large quantitys bought on body kits. (a group buy on skyline kits is possible?)

if someone is willing to donate their bonnet, ill work out a discounted price for them and some sort of cash arrangement :worship:

this thread will be updated reguarly with progress and pics (if possible) of the bonnets.

my number is 0424723200 and i can be contacted on that or here via pm. :PBJ:

Only 2 pics shown dude....

Are they street legal? How safe are they at speed?

Im guessing it does not include matching req paint colour?

yes it will require paint dude.

it is required you get bonnet pins anyway for extra saftey.

theres only two pics but thats because its the main vent, as i said i can add a little vent in like the NUR SPEC GTR R34 :ban:

Nothing for R34?

i can get R34 if you find me 5 people who would be interested in it.

I think he wants to see a R34 bonnet pic... so do I :D

Will the price be any different if I want just a standard bonnet in Fibreglass? No vents... I have plans of my own :O

styles are what i have above.

can do standard bonnets but i need to find a r34 bonnet. how much do they cost alone anyway?

satanic - find me 5 ppl including yourself and ill do the r34 bonnet in plain fibreglass.

i dont think it will affect price either way. depends how much the bonnet will cost outright.

can someone pm stan we only need one more for a r34vented bonnet i like the first one so its stan,me wogboy,lithus and one more i would donate my bonnet depending on how long it would take?

    • Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.
    • I have the 2025 build re003s’ on my 06 XT Forester Turbo and I quite rate them for street wet and dry
    • I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent. 
    • Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.
    • So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
