Carbon Fiber Bonnet
Thanks to Illusion Automotive for the Bonnet
the quality is Awsome it is a work of art.
the bonnets super light aswell, it hard to close as the bonnet lifters are used to a heavy bonnet
Still need to fit the Washer Jets and Bonnet catch, which is Tomoz jobs with the rest of the List

will have to get the car weighed to see how heavy she is
every wing is fiberglass as well if bumpers, light Magnizium wheels and now the carbon bonnet

Whats the handling like then? Obviously the engine is heavy but does the weight loss from the body make up for it?

as for Power/ 0-60 / top speed / Handling, i havent really been out in her anywhere yet she been sat there for ages.
as i need to get tyres for her as they are for motorsport use only.
and i have my features coming up and dont want to get her stonie chiped or anything before hand
there no rush, loads of time yet

i will just get around to running her in and then take her off the road for the turbo

Probably weigh about the same as a Corsa with a 2.0 16v - them wheels will save you a lot, as will the bonnet.. Maybe?
