yes and we could call your non painted CF hood on silver rice to roja

It will be mounted in a discreet not visible location for safety purpose, not sure why that would be rice

if a mechanic or someone left a small towel or other debris by accident in the engine bay who knows......Better safe then sorry I say.

Try to read some of the posts back on the boards and you'll see some engine fire stories.

back to topic!!!!!

I don't know about the rest of Europe but in Belgium you must have a fire extinguisher by law. I suppose it's more to help other people who are in trouble than for your own car.

even with my track S2000 the only problem i ever had was caused by an idiot shop that hooked up my oil pressure guage. the fitting broke at the block and squirted oil all over my header....lots of smoke, but no fire.

Passenger side A-Pillar fire extiguisher mounts are the shizzle...dawg.

I would suggest a full FSS (fire supression system i think they are called) have it wired up just like a race car, if theres ever a fire pull a cord and you have instant fire supression in your engine bay and the cockpit also i think.
