Re: [Mk2] [Generic] Border Bonnet
Absolute Legend!!!
I forgot all about EP Racing, I thought CarBen did them too but clearly not =( if you have any spare carbon parts you know which way to send them lol. I'm just starting my carbon madness now.
I've never seen carbon wings, only fibreglass. Crazy fool I LOVE IT!
Which carbon engine lid did you decide on? So much choice!

Re: [Mk2] [Generic] Border Bonnet
The only problem with a CF bumper/bodykit is that it's got to be a perfect fit as it's not the easiest thing to adjust (like Fibreglass). I'd love a CF bodykit.... but 2 things pop to mind...
1) How much weight would you really save for the money? i.e. you probably could spend the money on engine mods to get better 0-60 times, etc. Unless of course you're running silly high spec as it is.
2) is making the MR2 lighter at the front really such a good idea? - Yes i have a CF bonnet so i'm not really one to talk lol but as we all know at high speeds the front end can become a bit light as it is.
*awaiting the reply of... "but it looks good" lol

Re: [Mk2] [Generic] Border Bonnet
Very true the fit would have to be spot on I can imagen it would be with them knowing that it couldn't be modded to fit I would assume it would fit perfect but who knows till you try it, as you have stated it wouldn't be much of a weight loss and could be better spent on mods to improve performance wise but as I have modded the hell out of my 2 power wise I'm looking for weight loss and the looks, so naked carbon fibre ticks all those boxes and would look bloody awsome
