Title: Carbon Fibre/Fibre Glass Bonnet
Post by: Jezza-7 on October 27, 2012, 12:37:44 PM
A local company has said the following:

We would require a mint bonnet to mould from.

We also ask for at least 5 people willing to make a deposit prior to us starting the mould. The 5 people don't all need to want the item in carbon, we can do fibreglass aswell.

An approximate price would be £175 per bonnet in fibreglass and £400 in carbon.

Anyone interested? If so i could start a group buy.

If these come with the washer jet holes and vent in the top of the bonnet i could be interested but all the fibreglass bonnets i've seen don't have these  :(

Well i have got 2 people interested from another group.

I can ask about the washer jets in the bonnet.

Im sure a post on club polo would get some interest.

If people want I can organise a group buy with him using PPP discount, but I'm not getting parts sent to me for re-distribution- I don't have the space!
