should i put a carbon bonnet on my car?

[p3rcy1]

what do you think????

my car now

and photoshop (not realy good but you get the idea)

I personally think they are a bit chavvy. K-tecs one isn't very light in order to be as strong as OEM. I'd rather see a super thin one which you can just pin.

I love the carbon fibre ones and was going to get one myself but the cash flow died so i say yes...get one...

bit max powerish to me, but if you are into that kind of thing go for it. only way i would put a carbon bonnet on my car is, if my car was black!

I like carbon bonnets, but the car looks sweet as it is, don't want to over do it!

 

[Alex_225]

I reckon it would look pretty cool, goes with the black wheels you've got as well!!

 

[Cupster]

I would normally say no but I think it looks cool on your colour scheme

i've got the same colour as you and mine didnt look too good, i've now got a racing light weight bonnet which needs spraying and is 7-9kg lighter than the standard one

^^ good weight saving there

Like carbon bonnets for the weight saving issues but not keen on the 'maxxed' look of them.

Fibreglass? Where from?

I was thinking of getting one made up but then it will probably have to get resprayed every year as it will craze.

looks good imo and its lighter so do it.

 

[V1NNY]

its a bonnet from the clio cup cars and is very light

 

[Clang]

I'd only do it if you painted it i.e. from a weight saving point of view. I'm not really into modding (no need IMO) but your car looks quite good as it is.

Ph1 alloy bonnet?

 

[Middo]

i think carbon bonnets look best on a black car cos they dont look to ott (not that i'm biased or anything he he) think it'd look good though, they always look gorgeous in real life due to the light picking up the weeve etc.

Ph1 alloy bonnet?

its lighter than the ph1 172 bonnet, only weighs 4kg or so
