Hi Guys,

Over on the classicZCars (240K forum) forum, we are currently trying to get up enough interest in a fibreglass or fibreglass/carbon fibre bonnet for the C110 240K (should fit both hardtop and sedan).

I found somebody who is willing to make them, but i don't want to waste his (or my) time if we can't make up atleast an order of 5 or 6 (it is a lot of work to setup the moulds.. other places have wanted $1500 just to make the mould!), we currently have 4.

Details in post number 49 : http://www.classiczcars.com/forums/showthr...3120&page=2

anyone here interested? if so pm me.

Kent, not sure how many people on here have a 240K, from hanging out here for a while, lots have the C210, not the C110,

But I hope some more put their hands up, as I want one.

i am afraid that at this point, i have no idea.. the guy making them won't know either until he makes one. He used to own a fibreglassing business, and supply prices have obviously changed over the years.

at a guess i would expect a fibreglass bonent to be around $500+ and a full carbon bonnet around $1000+.. no idea for a mixed one.

as a comparison, a carbon/fibreglass bonnet from restored in Japan is around $1200

    • 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

    • All my Polish car culture insight comes from watching Nightride. So I half expect this to get 1UZ swapped eventually?! Are you going to drive it in winter? I'm always curious how ATTESA would hold up in the snow. There isn't that much opportunity to try it in Australia.
