Default My carbon bonnet.. + other pics.

What you guys reckon? I think it looks great, but to be honest it doesnt weigh much less than my alloy one

Oh what the heck, more teaser pics!



The back end with some sti lights going on soon, the exhaust is a full titanium apexi. Bloody loud!



Over did it with the heat reflective tape, all over the intercooler and induction!


Most of the back end stripped out, no one else will ever sit in it anyway.


Yum! Rays wheels TE37 wrapped in new toyo tr-1's! with rays light weight lug nuts!!


Finally a pic of my old wagon wrx when I was 18. Now 20. Always do the work myself on my own cars.



I'm not after some mad power, but decent power, and weight reduction should make the car a good competitior. The car is loaded with extra's coilovers etc. Will be posting full spec once car is done.

Nice project you got there.

Seconded on the bonnet pins though as carbon bonnets on Subaru's all seem to lift due to the hoodscoop.
