Carbon Fiber OEM Style Bonnet for 5th

Basically it's my birthday in a month and missus asked what I'd like and next on my list is to get a CF bonnet for the Lude so I'm just getting in an early request to see if anyone has one they are thinking of parting with.

Condition isn't a major factor, just not cracked etc as I'll be having it painted when I get some other bits done. I simply want one for the weight saving aspect as currently, I feel I need a gym membership to lift the OEM one. Boy is it heavy haha.

So if you have one you're thinking of getting rid off, drop me a PM with a pic or two and a price you have in mind.

Thanks

Gareth

You should just remove your bonnet spoiler, and your bonnet will be light as a CF one ...... Honest...

P.S. I'll come and collect that heavy bonnet spoiler as u wouldn't want it causing clutter...... No need to thank me....Anything for a fellow Luder

10/10 for effort but the bonnet spoiler will be making its way onto the cf one

Much weight difference? Never thought of fiberglass one.

feels heavier than the carbon one but lighter than the oem one

The carbon one is fibreglass too. But carbon overlay. Is it not?

there is a real difference though the carbon one I could throw it like a Frisbee

the glass one is a bit too heavy for me to do that
