probably not real c/b dude....

real c/f is like $1200+

I have never seen a fake carbon fibre bonnet as there is no plant i know of capable of dipping such a large object nor would it be of any financial gain to do so.

I think you mean or what you should mean is this.

Carbon fibre bonnets purchased under $1000 are usually fibre glass based with the top layer being carbon fibre.

You get the look but not the structural advantages that you do with a complete carbon bonnet.

This is much cheaper and what most cheap Carbon Fibre bonnet makers do.

It is still "real" carbon fibre.

Eastbear, Stout, Jun full carbon fibre bonnets are around $850-1300 plus delivery from Japan.

Its just unfortunate that delivery costs so much :P

Also when a full carbon bonnet has been made within Australia and has been crash tested this will see a large increase in price.

yep and thats who quoted me on the one for my 2006 holden combo..

Just out of interest I got pulled over today and fined for not having a mod plate for the pod and micrrotech ecu $75 no points BUT he made no mention at all about my carbon over fibreglass bonnet but then again I didnt ask either lol

WOW Terry your pod is secured... Yeah...

How did they get you on the ECU??? How did they even know???

Pod is secure, I have a handset for the microtech and he knew what it was, to be clear on this it wasnt a defect, it says on the fine "drive vehicle if equipment does not comply with the vehicle standards" (word for word there) offense details "pod airfilter, aftermarket computer" I'm not too concerned but the gist of it was, I didnt have a mod plate for anything and he wants me to get one to comply with the law, he could of defected the car but let me off with this as a warning. I have a feeling he just wanted to look at the car and then started telling me about his RX3 with a microtech and all the shit he went through with it even tho he is a cop lol. The reason he pulled me over was, I was be tailed by this total f**kwit who was tailgaiting me for ages and when I got to an intersection, I blasted through it to leave him behind, he was somewhere close and heard the roar and blow off.

i knew that mr-toy i just made the post cause ive seen a few ppl around wanting c/f bonnets cheap...i thought that was cheap

2 yrs ago mine cost me $800 in Hong Kong, it cost $3-400 to import.

why bother paying that much for something that you can only use on the track but i dont have a car so thats just my opinion

My bonnet had a acid rain look to it and a good respray was quoted at $750, this way I get a spare bonnet and no respray hassles, straight up bolt on all I had to do was switch the water spray nozzles.

    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
