If its a blue one with minilites and holes in the front bumper that would be Sids ( turbohaus)

Fair play - good result.

Nev are you doing GRP bonnets? If so how much?

Cheers

@Sam: check your wheels for play, I've had the nut holding the bearing in place come loose after a bit of amateur forest-rallying a few months back... created some awkward noises from he rear.

Hello fella, yes, Nev does have them in stock.

£180 each, but these are light weight race bonnet's which need to be pinned front and rear because they don't have the original bonnet mount's moulded in.

Finish and fit are really good as Sid has got one on his new beast

Do you know how much they weigh?

The bonnet feel's very light when taking it off the car but will ask Nev the exact weight for you
