only downside ive noticed is the original washer jets done fit the holes in the bonnet... ive solved this as you can see the washer jets are on my wiper blades which i did ages ago...
Yeah could not miss them :p

I am sure they would not be hard to fix

Reason i asked about the underside is interested in the underside ribs for reasons related to using a naca duct to feed a custom filter box would it be easier than the standard ribs that get in the way?

is the box you have similar to the Turini cold air box which uses the whole cheese grater to force air roundto the induction box?

the layout underneath is IDENTICAL to the original just made from fibreglass...

Yes you need better colour saturation shame you couldnt have lifted the bonnet prior to taking shot LOL :p

Like someone else pointed out you need to sort the bumper out rip ties espically :doh:


But it looks ok with a black R not too "Chick ot me moter mate" that you seam to see on cruise cars

Ohhhhhh let me seeeeeee ermmmmmmmmmmmmm








































Number plate screws spring to mind :p

ohh and youd be best removing your VIN from the pics always good practice!

You dont really need a big wow camera in most cases you will find it too hard to adjust all the settings correctly to get a trophy shot. A decent high end point and shoot is all you need I use a Sony N2 and a friends who's mentoring me on the finer art of photgraphy said it was as good as many low end DSLR's

Example; Clicky

Also this is where my interest lies; Clicky

My CFX bonnet was the same. I just got my Dremmil out and opened them out slightly.
