Carbon bonnets

[Els]

Has anyone on here or does anyone know of anyone with an Inferno Orange 182 with a carbon bonnet?

Possibly thinking of getting one for mine, but i wana see how it looks first....

Couse if it looks w@nk then i wont bother...

Have seen one before, imo it looked awsome.

Yeah? cool, if someone has got a pic that would be ace!

but you'll need black wheels too

Hmmm im not too keen on black alloys... but thats just my opinion.

Ive got a cup so its got anthracite coloured wheels so thats as dark as I would want to go really....

I have seen a orange/black 206 before and the colour went mint together but dont think i could do it to my own car...

Just thought a carbon bonnet would look good on the Inferno 182, espesually the vented one.

Can anyone photoshop this one orange? maybe give me a better idea..

think there is no weight saving though

This bonnet is also around 6kg lighter than the original.

Thats what is sais on K-tec website, dunno how true that is though.

do you want carbon for looks or for weight saving?

if it's for the weight go for carbon kevlar and have it painted, much stronger and even lighter than carbon.

was speaking to matt wills at fcs and a friend of his is making some at the moment think they'll retail for about £250 ish

I wanted if for both really.... carbon looks cool and it it lighter... ive photoshopped a pic for my self but im s**t with photoshop.... this is what i came up with lol..... trust me it sucks

£250 thats not 2 bad fair play!

Could someone photoshop a black bonnet side strips and alloys for me? just to see what it would look like

Interesting, i'll getaway with the carbon effect on a Black Gold 182............. Needs a diet cup stylee :evil:

I did a search of the site and found this pic..... I think it looks nice!

My missis aint too sure though, but im sure she will come round to my way of thinking

 

[RichF]

That looks mint. Go for it!

 

[Els]

HE HE tempted now....

What do you think of spraying the side strips black as well? get some more black accents going to go with the bonnet. Anything else look good with it?
