Carbon Bonnet Anyone?

[CMF_carlos_fergando]

I havent done any body mods to my car as you can see from clicking on my profile. (i photoshopped the number plate, on photo)

But i was interested in a carbon bonnet for my car, to save weight and they look amazing!

any ideas on cost and availability?

For a ready made one

location : Japan
Cost : Lots

other than that be a custom jobby....as far as im aware

Site member '2' used to have one for sale a few months ago, not sure if he still does though...

Perhaps give 'Perfect Run' a call as they seem to be pretty easy to source some Jap K11 stuff from. I think '2' payed around AUS$950 for his as well, but not through them...

heyhey..

Yeah,they look amazing and feel amazing when u lift them up. I ordered and bought mine via powerplayimports.com and it cost me $1300 inc.tax and that was during a sale in that company in japan.Should cost $200 extra if not on special.

Its now sold,and u will find out whos the new owner very soon...in his project micra.

Hey 2,

Did you sell all the parts you had or do you still have some things left?

If you have anything left over it may be worth re-listing what you have to remind everyone.

2: Do you still have your flywheel for sale?

 

[CMF_2]

Hi guys,

Yeh,i still have something for sale,and this one is new and just arrived last week.Oh well,i ordered it 2-3 months ago and i dunno what to do with it now.
"Eastbear fibreglass rear bumper"

Smooth surface ready to spray.

Cost $798

Will sell at reasonable offer and can deliver depends on where you live.

thats very nice!!!

is that from part of a "bodykit set" or just a random rear valance??

cheers napster

 

[CMF_Napster]

would it be to much trouble and exspense to ship to UK?
just wondered thats all. dont go to to much trouble about it if its to much trouble "2"

thanks napster

 

[CMF_2]

Here's the exhaust exit side.

I still have the flywheel in the car,but it will cost me atleast $100 to take it out,so i'll leave it there.

The micra is still the best car i ever have,i fitted a new fuel pump in the car few weeks ago and it started to run again(in the driveway only,....no rego),I will give my pride to my gf as a learners car,all suspension bits are still on the car,but will remove if she want a comfort drive.But all the exterior goodies are sold,dont want to see a half smiling greenpepper or some carbon pieces on the road,u know,we were once L's.

Comes with stickers,installation manual and rubber pad.

Napster: Hi,its part of the eastbear bodykit set,i reckon it will be expensive to ship to the UK,the box to put the bumper in is like half the size of a 1.7 metre freezer.It's wide and big in space,but its safe for the bumper inside.

on the eastbear demo car.

 

[CMF_2]

this was my pride project plan.

 

[CMF_Napster]

hey thats cool no worrie 4the spec anyways?

would it only be exspensive if it was heavy??
i think i remember u saiying it was fibreglass?

cheers
napster

 

[CMF_2]

By plane,they charge on space....

 

[CMF_Napster]

ok no worries dude!
cheers anyway.

napster

 

[CMF_micratech]

Ahhh..
That rear bumper would have looked sooo good on your micra "2".
So sad that all the sweet parts have been sold!
The car realy started to look awesome..

Hope you get to rebuild it some time, just the way it was, cause I`t had a uniqe look to it..

 

[CMF_antish_r]

actually what if you lay a carbon fibre on the normal hood itself

what would happen

beacuse carbon fibre is a bit like fibreglass right ????

what do you guys think of that ??

 

[CMF_Ghetto Micra]

you'd be a ricer, you'd be adding weight to an already heavy bonnet.

carbon bonnet's are for lightweight, reduce weight over the front wheels...

if you just want the "look" go buy some fake film and stick it to your bonnet... *yuck*
