Looking for both a carbon bonnet and boot lid please!
Let me know if you have anything for sale and also what the fitment is like.
I had a carbon bonnet before on a previous car and there was a massive gap on one side between the bonnet and wing.. would prefer an OEM fit if possible!
Cheers,
Adam

I have seen a couple with the bonnets. You can get them in the UK as well which is a relief. The bootlids on the other hand look a bit harder to source!
GL thought mate.

Just cut the inside skin off the OEM part. It will weight less than a carbon bonnet. Will be abit flimsy though.

Ah, well i've got a limit! If there aint one around for a few quid then I think I better get cutting! I may have to cut the inner skin anyway to give clearance for the K20 thats going in.

ive got this which im selling bud.
its a good fit, but to make it absolutely perfect you would need to modify the bonnet hinges. Just need to enlarge the holes to be able to move it forward a bit more
let me know if you are interested and i will try and get some more pics. although it is buried uinder a jobby load of snow at the moment
