hey mate, if you want black, u might as well get a carbon fibre one..

because by the time you buy a fibre glass bonnet, and then get it sprayed, u would probably paid the same as the carbon..

thats just my two cents

Just keep in mind that you are opening up a hole in your bonnet therefore rain can get in...

Carbon fibre bonnets are illegal according to other threads on here, but fibreglass if it is an approved one isn't, don't take my word for it but thats what I've read....Cost me $350 to get my fibreglass bonnet painted, but I did pick up the bonnet very cheap brand new. Don't forget bonnet locks they are recommended for all CF and FG bonnets, aerocatch all way for the locks...

If its just going to be a fibreglass with a layer of CF over the top then whats the point go fibreglass or get a full carbon fibre and expect to pay easily over $1200...

um well the engine is alloy.... so corrosion will be annoying and also your coil packs are on top of the engine in a well like area so you want to make sure you have your coil pack cover on and its water tight...

ive heard not to get your engine bay wet due to all the sensors in there. sensors get wet = damage and need replacing = hassle and waste of money.

Also i personally think that CF looks great, but if its going on a black car it looks a little odd... im getting fibreglass for my black GT-T :thumbsup:

Cheers

    • 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.
