For sale is my BRAND NEW Nova carbon fibre bonnet, exact replica bought from Magnum motorsport. Never been used only trial fitted on the car! Selling due to a new engine and gearbox costing a bit more than planned. Weighs 5.7 kgs

Due to the cost of the bonnet and how badly couriers treat panels, collection only!!

Will need bonnet pins to attach it at the front, but can bolt to the hinges at the back with the captive studs and nuts!

£350 ono - cost me the thick side of £460!

Dont really need any parts, just the extra money for my new parts!!

When you fit the aero flush catches, you only have to mount the pins in the slam panel, sit the bonnet down on top them, mark them with a pen underneath on the bonnet were theyre touching. Drill a 10mm hole through and the use the small template of the catches to cut out so they sit flush. Then the catches cover the cut edge!! Really is that easy!:thumb:;)

Have you weighed it in @ 5.7kg? reason I ask is my fibreglass item is 5.1kg, and always thought carbon was lighter than FG?
