Sparky Posted May 2, 2006 Posted May 2, 2006 I've heard that you need bonnet pins but other people say you dont so im not sure Not really a fan of carbon fibre hoods on black cars, would look good on urs shell Sparky Quote
*Toymota* Posted May 2, 2006 Author Posted May 2, 2006 i dont think itll stand out that much but at the end of the day, when its parked up an people walk past at shows,it'll catch their eye. also itll stop the chances of rust forming from stone chips and its LIGHTER!! the back seats are coming out too! Quote
shelly_star Posted May 2, 2006 Posted May 2, 2006 no you dont really need bonnet pins, matt doesnt have any on his CF bonnet. Quote
lobotomy Posted May 3, 2006 Posted May 3, 2006 hope not! i hate bonnet pins!!It depends on the strength of the catch on the underside of the bonnet. It would be best to fit bonnet pins. You get quite subtle ones these days. I've heard horror stories of the catches on CF bonnets cracking at speed and flipping up and smashing the windscreen -- Not realy something you want to happen while cruising down the motorway/backroad Quote
Nanglebadger Posted May 4, 2006 Posted May 4, 2006 Thats gonna be class Toymota, nice one, thinkin of removin my rear seats too, had 2 people in the back 2weeks ago and it did a fair bit of damage to my brand new freakin tyres!!! Phil. Quote
