i like it very nice so wish i had the money to spend on a carbon bonnet, mine will no doubt end up black with the scoop moulded to bonnet or a replikit one, im sure it will grow on you but a thumbs up from me. :thumleft: :thumleft: :thumleft:
she's all comming together nicely now after a fair bit of cash spent, not bad for just an n/a now for some body kit i think.

Doesnt look bad but I think they only look 100% on either black cars or the 2 tone with black roof.

Each to their own tho, give it a few weeks and see how you feel then.

Do they come without any fixing holes for the spoiler?

I need a Rev3 bootlid for my Phoenix Power spoiler, but thought i may as well and go the whole hog and get a carbon one, as i will eventually anyway :whistle:

Don't come with any holes, you have to drill them yourself for the spoiler Bud. Captivated nuts for hinge and boot lift :thumleft:
