Fitment is very good as well with fairly even gapping , though it took a while to get set up 100%.

All well and good, but shouldn't you have fitted it to the car rather than your drive?

Mark,

I will be very interested in seeing the bonnet when it arrives. Please give me a shout when convenient.

Chris.
Absolutely - I'll drop you a line when it arrives.

very

Well priced and weighs in around 5lbs lighter than stock.

I'd like a look too, will you post some pics when it's fitted?

Are you keeping the CF look?

I have a feeling it may well be painted to match the car.

Bonnet arrived OK. I haven't seen a Mugen to compare it against, but for the cost it looks very good.

As eSeM has stated it is a CF and GF hybrid so does not have the weight saving of a pure CF bonnet - but at about 30% of the cost of the Mugen (and a better looking item IMHO) it is a good buy.

If I escape any teenage angst and associated crap this weekend, I will fit the bonnet and post some images when I'm done.
