as above, in talks with 'litetuned' carbon fibre company at the moment to see about getting a corsa B bonnet made up.
Need at least 7 people wanting to by though or they will not manufacture it.
The colours availible are blue, black, silver and red i believe, will have more information on monday.
We all wouldnt need to have the same colour, just the same bonnet if your with me
i personally think that a bad boy'd evo vented one would look nice
As i said above, will find out about prices on monday but we will be looking at about £500ish each.
cheers, steve

I've had a couple of Pug 206 bonnets and even a Corsa engine cover I bought from Taiwan.
Cost about £80 each (bonnet) and £20 for the engine cover, plus the import duty and transport fees but still worked out less than £200 each.
Cars like Pugs and the Asian stuff is popular over there, so there's a lot of competition for export customers.
Do Litetuned actually make their own products? I can't see there being any point in making items like that in the UK when the quality of the bonnets I had was so good.

Sounds gay. All the water would get over your injectors. Even worse if you've got throttle bodies.

So does this mean anyone with a bonnet like this is a homo?
