My Gtrs New look

Nice car, I think if it were lowered it would finish it right off.

How are you finding the cop attention with the boot lid? I almost bought one, but was told if I were rear ended the other person’s insurance won’t cover the damage due to the carbon parts not meeting ADR’s..

Meets ADRs:confused: Possible, but the bootlid would absorb kack sh1t energy. Its the bumper bar and its mounting to the chassis that surely absorbs/transfers the energy, or maybe not?!?!? I suppose it is a big picture thing, and it could play a part, but straight off the bat doesnt sound right.

Still want to know where to get one from, id like one provided they aint to exxy:)

im from newcastle aswell, the cars lookin alot better now. nice job. skirts look sweet, undecided bout the pods. dont love them but dont hate them.

How much lighter does this boot weigh compared to the factory one?

I am sure it would be the rear bar and its reinforcement that would have to comply with ADR's, as they would generally be the first point of contact in the event of an accident.

Roy and NXTIME, you are both right in what your saying. I’m speaking from my findings. NRMA almost didn’t cover my stock GTR bonnet.. As it wasn’t a factory item (was on a Gtst) when some clown backed into it at Safeway. Their argument was it didn’t meet ADR blah blah blah, after a quick call from the lawyer all was fixed, seeing it was a stock factory bonnet after all.

I would check with your insurance to be on the safe side, for example Shannon’s won’t let me run a carbon bonnet and engine hatch cover on the Porsche due to what I said in my first post.
