i can install both for u - its not soo hard - just time consuming :)

aw ben.. daym.. and i wanted ur black enkei rims too.. :(

i'll holla if i havnt got anything organised by the weekend man :thumbsup:

how about cf hoodies ppls? any TLC tips?

I have heard of a few ppl getting an extra couple of layers of clear coat applied to their bonnets to avoid the 'yellowing' affect from UV rays.

Always try and keep it polished (this will help prevent yellowing) with a good quality carnuba wax.

I have also heard of a few horror stories of the bonnet flying up driving at elevated speeds, so a set of bonnet locks are a worthwhile investment if you attend the odd track day. My fave locks are the NRG CF locks.

Good luck with it mate, Im sure it will look sweet once you have it installed ;)

bonnet usually requires 2 people to fit..
when you have screwed in the 4 bolts that attatch the bonnet, check to make sure your 2 front guards have enough clearance to close the bonnet.

NRG CF Locks.. whoa.... what are those??:confused:
wher'd you get em too man.. im actually lookin for locks, for this cf hoodie of mine...
any1 else with recommended locks or methods of keeping this bonnet down..

dosent the hood come with a stock latch ? Thats all it needs. Bonnet pins are there for aesthetics...

I suggest u get bonnet pins.

LIghtness of bonnet can be unsuspecting @ high speeds.

I ran more than 20 times down the 1/4 mile and my cf hood never fly away from my EG LOL.
i got bonnet pins now mainly for circuit racing use.
