don't believe anyone would put a carbon bonnet on a trophy and switch the lights. If you find out who this is, pm me. I wanna rip into them !!!!1

 

[TimMB]

iirc the carbon bonnet isnt particularly lighter than standard bonnets?

 

[Peperami]

6kg lighter, and its harder to lose weight from the front end than rear, so its a fair whack...

my bad :O im getting mixed up with the ph-quiks aluminium bonnets

 

[Peperami]

I reckon a trophy would look awesome with a carbon bonnet, the grey on reddish orange would look cool! Would match the grey detailing on the trophy too.

 

[Revels]

Yeh, whats teh big deal, oh no, he modded a trophy!!

At least he didnt do it to a williams!

Taste is lost on some people.... you either have or you don't. May as well fit a sub and new head unit and waste all that weight saving n'all I guess.

I thought a Trophy was just a red 182 with a sticker on the side

 

[Danith]

why waste ££££ on a carbon bonnet to save weight? why not just go on a diet and stop eatin kebabs. hard i know im addicted to kofte kebabs.

i all fairness all he has done to the trophy is put a carbon bonnet on it, it isnt the end of the world!

I think his next mod should be to dump the suspension and get a set of coilovers on there. A set of ledas properly setup will outhandle a trophy any day with the added bonus of getting rid of that 4x4 look.

Hang on a minute that would make buying a Trophy pointless................

**sorry to be so sarcastic but how annoying are anal Trophy drivers**

Hi KingTrophy.

My comments are only meant as a bit of fun. I know what distinguishes a Trophy from a 182.

I have a 182 with ledas and a bit of engine work.

 

[makavelli]

mark has a trophy eater

 

[KingTrophy]

Sounds smart, what engine work has been done? still fancy my chances round thruxton though!!

OMEX
sports cat
cable throttle

I cant drive for s**t by the way I just make my car faster to compensate.

dont we all lol

 

[TimMB]

Here here...oh wait mines no faster than standard...

what's the dial on the dash board? just a clock or a gauge?

If your going to put a carbon bonnet on a Trophy your gonna do other mods first. I very much doubt his only mod is making his car look like he's bought a panel from the scrappers and not bothered to paint it
