They are very, very rare!!
According to Speedline they made a one-off batch of 24 wheels for a company called Frazer Nash Research in Surrey. The wheels are 6x15 Type 2118 with 4x100 pcd, ET30 offset and 70mm centre bore.
Very good effort mate, carbon bonnet looks lovely
What camber are you running front and rear now then?
Just over 3 degrees neg on the front and with the rear shim should be between 2.25 - 2.5 degrees neg on the rear.
Bonnet looks good Nick
Cheers!
Yeah still using the 25mm's Chris, with them being only 6 inches wide instead of the standard 7 inch wheel that everyone has I dont have any arch rubbing issues. I know what you guys are saying about the reshell, its looks alright in the pictures but in the flesh you can actually see the dents/scratches in the roof. And it really bugs me for some reason! lol

Didnt think those speedlines were THAT rare, I got mine off an old mk1 cup racer.
What dimensions are they Matt? Who did you sell them to also?

CF bonnet looks great fella :approve:
Oh strange, presume then that only 24 wheels were made in that fitment size and not just in general! However still pretty darn rare!
p.s. If you ever want to sell them, pm me first please!
Cheers dude, looks alright however it isnt very light. Lighter than my standard bonnet but weighs about as much as a ph1 alloy bonnet, though my mate that fitted it said there'd be no problem in cutting some bits out of it to make it a little lighter

Nice one.
I quite fancy changing mine for a CF (with some aerocatches) soonish, as my current bonnet is a right state.
Well for the right price you could have this one
And i'll chuck in the lockable aerocatches 
Flol! The exact reason why I want to reshell!
e92 + E46 M3 + Cup
Carbon looks good!, Leave the fucker as it is - you know as soon as you re-shell the old girl you'll get twated on track!
You filled your spare seat for Sunday?

Carbon bonnet looks bang on, I wouldn't even consider re-shelling. Have you tried just pushing it out from the inside for now?
Barley noticeable and it's a track car. Mental.

You went to the same school as me
Lol, would be sods law. Someone said to me about getting a CF roof for this....
Im taking the mrs up with me matey, come up still if you want though. Will of been a while since youve been on a track, lifting off everywhere!
Cheers dude, havent tried pushing it out. Tbh with it being so close to the windscreen, if I tried pushing it out it could crack the windscreen or break the seal between the two.
Lol Ollie, i've seen another Cup shell thats pretty accessable and is great condition also. Think the reg plate was something like R8 ... You seen that one before
