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:

      The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week

      Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.

      What ECU are you running? This is probably the biggest question. If it's a PowerFC, I'd probably change the ECU and get something newer that will handle the injectors in a nicer way.
