Did you buy this off neil?

I may be intrested... My bonnet is kinda fu*ked with dints etc in it, however im worried about being defected with this bonnet... Can it be painted or legalised in any way?

hi man no i don't think the guy i got it from was neil.anyway i have never had any problem with the cops.yes you could paint it but the carbon just looks hot.

My other concern is I have heard if you have a head on with a CF bonnet, they dont bend or crumple like the normal ones do, instead they come through the windscreen and take your head off....

But I will aggree, that bonnet looks hot! I just need to convince myself I want it that bad...

Decisions decisions.

Come to think of it, my birthday is coming up soon, maybe i can con ppl into paying for this for me... :laugh:

And just to confirm, this bonnet is NOT ADR approved is it?

it wont be because its not legal, and i dont know about taking your head off but they do splinter and brake instead of crumpling hence why there illegal. In saying that there so worth it :kiss:

      Who has a Infiniti Q60, Q50 (V37)?

      Yep, it was only an option on the Q50 Hybrid.  Same in Japan as far as I know. And doesn't use a centre diff like the Suby's do, so not the same as the WRX.  But it also isn't a reactive AWD like other Nissan AWD vehicles are, eg. Murano/Xtrail/etc.

      You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛

      Are you thinking of Bens R32? I don't remember if his went through the bonnet itself, but it went through the chassis rail. Brad (RISKIN) bought it, and turned it into a track car. It's funny how anti people are of Jim Berry now. I remember when I pulled mine out (during an engine change) and inspected it and found it cracking badly. At that point in time so many people were even on SAU, were so pro Jim Berry, and that was after Bens GTR exploded his quite publically.

      That's one of the reasons I got that breed, they look weird, the other reasons are they small, they are very vocal, and run around like they are on crack, I didn't want a breed that just sits around, these two are like kids on red cordial  My daughter has one, and it's a laugh riot, constantly doing Parkour around the house, sits on her shoulder, plays catch, and constantly runs around the house taking turns chasing the dog around, her Bermese though, just lays around with constant bitch face, and just looks on in utter disgust at the cat and dog playing together

      I'm getting PTSD flashbacks seeing that name again.  With my turbo swift, I got 1,500km of street use on a Jim Berry clutch before it exploded and took out my input shaft with it.
