Re: wtb vented bonnet
modify your current one to how you want it, then get it made in CF or fiberglass.

Re: wtb vented bonnet
I think ill stick with my original plan to have a original steel one modified ,as the ones from carmate are carbon or fiberglass which is ilegal in qld for road use. So I was quoted $180 for steel original bonet , $300 materials ,$400 labour $300 postage from new zealand. Where from you ask , from a guy on oz vr4 (vr4 wagon) he does a bit of exporting parts and he does a bit of carbon and fiberglassing stuff.

Re: wtb vented bonnet
Out of curiousity, and maybe I missed it on the website. But are the AB bonnets fibreglass? I'd assume so but need it confirmed

Re: wtb vented bonnet
They have fibreglass and "carbon fibre" versions. But the carbon fibre one is just fibreglass with a carbon fibre layer on top. So they weigh the same.

Re: wtb vented bonnet
I guess the option is there to get a mould of one and buy a carbon fibre kit and make your own fully carbon fibre one if someone had the cash to spendVectose wrote:They have fibreglass and "carbon fibre" versions.

Re: wtb vented bonnet
Are carbon bonnets legal if you get them engineered?

Anything is legal if it's engineered.
