Cefiro vented bonnets

[someonestolecc]

Could peoples with cefiros and vented bonnets please take pics of them?

I'm particularly interested in non-carbon fibre/fibreglass - more so in the ones with vents (because I'm looking at putting a vent in or two in).

Cheers.

carbon fibre is highly illegal (well in qld anyway) and trust me, the fibreglass bonnet is light enough.

Heres a pic of mine

Whats the go with getting it moulded?

Oops I thought it was just the vent, I didn't realise you had the whole fibreglass bonnet.

I didn't think they were legal either? How much would a bonnet like that be worth? (probably too much for moi)

[Slain]

shhhh they arent actually legal

no idea on the cost, i swapped riverside my stock one for this hardcorez bonnet yo! when his other ceffy landed.

vents etc i have seen on jms before.

[someonestolecc]

swapped for a normal bonnet? omg if anyone wants to do that with me they're welcome

Nico?

might get that one.

[Slain]

yeah thats what i was thinking of,

but i like my entire fibreglass

once its painted the color of my car (instead of pimptastic matt black) i shouldnt have a problem, one cop pulled me over and said they dont care too much

[someonestolecc]

Yah fair enough.

I just keep thinking what happens if some pisshead jumps in front of your car.. even if it wasn't your fault .. it's going to be your fault with a fibreglass bonnet they got stitched up *shrug* That's why my car = fully engineered

Looks mad tho, post up pics when it's painted please. If I have enough cash I might pickup some vents, otherwise I may investigate this chocking up of the bonnet because my bonnet doesn't seem to have any hooks that would lock it in an impact, so I'm assuming chocking it up a little won't hurt *shrug* we'll see

[Slain]

Well the cop who defected my car is one hell of a guru, he knows his shit and this is what he told me:

if it was carbon fibre, my car was on a tow truck because carbon fibre bonnets, in front on acceidents, dont disintegrate or bend like metal or fibreglass, they actually break the hinges and go through the a pillar/windscreen due to their strength. Fibreglass on the other hand disintegrates into strands therefore making the impact less than mteal as it cushions the persons fall.

So yeah, he just wants me to get a latch installed and piss off my bonnet pins
