funkymonkey Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 Hey guys, I'm about to bring down an Aeromaster Type 2 bonnet for the R32 from japan, but before I buy one, I wanted to know if anyone's actually seen one on a car, and if they have pics of anything similar (mainly the front piece). Its supposed to give it a slightly R34'ish look... but I've only ever seen one pic of it, and that's from the manufacturer. So if any of you have seen it or have any other pics, can you please post em up? here's the pic I've got: Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/185213-aeromaster-type-2-bonnet-for-r32-pics-anyone/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
silver gts-t Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 i dont know how the front part will fit. gts and gtr bars have the lil part coming up the headlight. unless you have to remove it.

thrtytwo Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 i dont know how the front part will fit. gts and gtr bars have the lil part coming up the headlight.unless you have to remove it. lol its specifically designed for the car, im pretty sure it would fit. nice looking bonnet too. havnet got any pics for ya though sorry Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/185213-aeromaster-type-2-bonnet-for-r32-pics-anyone/#findComment-3352225 Share on other sites More sharing options...
funkymonkey Posted September 16, 2007 Author Share Posted September 16, 2007 ya, as thrtytwo said... this front lip comes down in front of that lil extrusion on the bar, so there's no interference. the front of the bonnet is just a few cm back from the face of the front bumper, instead of stepping back a couple of inches to the headlight line (just like an R34 GTR)... which is what I want. Its designed to go on an R32 GTS/GTSt and usable with the standard bonnet release lever. If you put it on a GTR you'll have to make a hole in the mesh to access the release. First thing on the to do list when I get it is to remove that line in the middle going back from the drop vent... might need to reinforce the opening from underneath though. I might take a pic of my car in the right position so I can photoshop the bonnet on to see what it looks like.

Mark_McQ Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 I was trying to find pics of the very bonnet as well a while back. Spoke to a company who distribute it and they said that pic is the only one they can get hold of. Looks like a really nice bonnet too, but you wonder if it'd still look as good when fitted. Wish the company would release some pics of it fitted.

funkymonkey Posted September 17, 2007 Author Share Posted September 17, 2007 well made a mockup quickly using a pic of my car... shits me that I can't find a pic of it on a car... I know it'll be rad and look tough, but there's just that tiny bit of uncertainty that comes from not havin an actual pic. a nice GT style front bar (none of this dorftio lip that looks like bubba shit) with some dense meshing, diffusers underneath and it'll look mean Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/185213-aeromaster-type-2-bonnet-for-r32-pics-anyone/#findComment-3355770 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark_McQ Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 Very nice chop. At first I actually thought it was a proper car fitted with one. From that pic, it does look like it might look seriously good.

funkymonkey Posted September 18, 2007 Author Share Posted September 18, 2007 the front doesn't jut out quite that much, I couldn't quite get the pic of my car in the right angle... might try again later today n see if I can take another pic to play with.

funkymonkey Posted September 21, 2007 Author Share Posted September 21, 2007 found something close... its a garage yanack bodykitted R32 in england... which I think looks like a 1980's R30 race car... f**kin blast from the past styling. it sorrta looks like this on top: and like this in front: except the grille and the bonnet are moulded together, and the upper lip on the bonnet is smoothed in more.
