carbon fibre bonnet?

[wheelmeister]

hey guys!

I have a silver 182 and wanted to know if you lot think its a good idea to get a carbon fibre bonnet from k-tec for it? I think it would look cool with the car being silver and think the two colours go nicely. what do you lot think?

IMO fail!

Would look gash. IMO obviously.

 

[Timmay]

yeah go for it

Go for it mate i think it would look good.

By the by, be prepared to be subjected to a lot of half-empty-negativity...

If its nothing to do with a BMC induction kit or Turini alloys no one wants to know

I have just had a look on their web site, think it looks mint. I might save up and get one for my blue cup, was also thinking of getting my curbed turini wheels refurbed and powder coated in black instead of silver aswell

 

[madhops87]

Do it. Would look very nice.

Worth doing if you paint the bonnet to match the car and remove half your interior to save weight

 

[fuel_slut]

Would look pretty cool. There is not much of a weight saving really.

DO IT!!! Danny chauster has it on his silver 182 , slammed to the ground with matt black 182 wheels. it looks awesome!! have a search

What are your thoughts of one fitted to liquid yellow? Mines got quite a few stone chips at the front and was thinking og getting it resprayed, but wouldn't have to worry too much with a carbon bonnet

Personally not keen on them.

They only look good on fully track prep'd cars in white imo.

 

[Timmay]

Dave i think yours would look good with one - Bubbles on here had one and it looked mint

 

[paul]

just have it matt black ive heard thats the future - or that might just be on the ph1 172's LOL..

 

[TOONARMY]

Not too sure what it would look like mate. If you had stock 182 wheels, then i dont think it would look all that great. But if its lowerd and has aftermarket anthracite wheels, then it might look the nuts.

Bubbles on here had one and it looked mint

It looked rubbish and she knows it, lol.

[TOONARMY]

I like that

 

[172Ben]

looks nice, love the wheels. How low is that?

 

[Neil G]

Not really my cuppa either

As Shaun says, If it's on a fully tracked out car with rollcage, expensive buckets etc. good if on std car it's a bit naff

 

[Sam16hutch]

Ben, do you remember what you said at the beginning of this thread!?!

Hypocrit?!?!?!?

 

[Ash87]

oh im tempted by one now, looks lush!

 

[jayxx83]

Carbon on black. I would say do it mate, the difference is defo noticeable, the car responds a lot more quickly on turn in.

 

[The Chubby Pirate]

That looks the bollox's^^^ Love it!

Could anyone photoshop one on a Ph1 With antracite wheels please?
