Rob H@RCH Engineering Posted July 4, 2013 Posted July 4, 2013 Thought I would throw these up for Rick (Carbon Goodies) as Im the first one to fit one for him. First the stock scoop weighs in at a whoping 450 grams!! the carbon one is only 137 grams thats some saving!!!! This is how it looks!! The picks are off my phone so there not the best but you will get the idea. And my car int the cleanest its been lol. http://s87.photobucket.com/user/turbosr_2006/media/toylet/null_zpsb0d1aad1.jpg.html'> http://s87.photobucket.com/user/turbosr_2006/media/toylet/null_zpse7790dbd.jpg.html'> http://s87.photobucket.com/user/turbosr_2006/media/toylet/null_zps978f3ffc.jpg.html'> http://s87.photobucket.com/user/turbosr_2006/media/toylet/null_zps52cb277b.jpg.html'> http://s87.photobucket.com/user/turbosr_2006/media/toylet/null_zps61d11c32.jpg.html'> http://s87.photobucket.com/user/turbosr_2006/media/toylet/null_zps915cdb8f.jpg.html'> http://s87.photobucket.com/user/turbosr_2006/media/toylet/null_zps72c35135.jpg.html'> http://s87.photobucket.com/user/turbosr_2006/media/toylet/null_zpsd3ac16cf.jpg.html'> http://s87.photobucket.com/user/turbosr_2006/media/toylet/null_zpsf318ae8a.jpg.html'> http://s87.photobucket.com/user/turbosr_2006/media/toylet/null_zpsbe7f28d9.jpg.html'> Quote
Dan Barnes Posted July 4, 2013 Posted July 4, 2013 Looks good man!! But pleaseeee clean your car ! Quote
rasslenny Posted July 4, 2013 Posted July 4, 2013 really was contemplating one of these but because i put my oil cooler up there i dont think the reverse scoop is smart idea... but dam it looks good.... AND DITTO TO DANS COMMENT WASH your BLOODY CAR Quote
Rob H@RCH Engineering Posted July 4, 2013 Author Posted July 4, 2013 It will be washed ready for JF2!! Quote
Carbon Goodies Posted July 4, 2013 Posted July 4, 2013 Just to let you guys know, this particular one was the very first, and only one I've had made. I sent it to a customer who wasn't happy with the fit due to the gaps around the edges of the vent and the recess in the bonnet. As Rob is a personal friend of mine I did him a deal on this one as it was just going to sit in my garage doing nothing. Anyway now he has fitted it, it actually doesn't look too bad. Would you guys be happy with the fit of this? If so then I can start production on them now, I just wasn't too happy with the gaps and I've been trying to get the manufacturer to remould. Cheers Rick Quote
mattyD Posted July 4, 2013 Posted July 4, 2013 Looks very smart mate, looks like a top quality product aswell Quote
Carbon Goodies Posted July 4, 2013 Posted July 4, 2013 Looks very smart mate, looks like a top quality product aswell These are made by a UK manufacturer who makes all of the carbon for a very well known Jap manufacturer in the UK side of things which you can buy in the main dealer. They use pre preg 2x2 twill weave carbon and it's good quality stuff. Cheers Rick Quote
Liam_D Posted July 4, 2013 Posted July 4, 2013 Love these really want one, just don't fancy cutting a near mint carbon bonnet to fit one. Quote
Malcolm GT Posted July 4, 2013 Posted July 4, 2013 Looks good and when saw on Facebook thought they were in production now . Want Quote
Carbon Goodies Posted July 4, 2013 Posted July 4, 2013 Looks good and when saw on Facebook thought they were in production now .Want Well if you guys feel they are good enough fitment wise then they can be in production now. Quote
Fozzie Posted July 4, 2013 Posted July 4, 2013 From what I can see in the photos, the fitment looks great; you'd have to be bloody picky to turn that down! Quote
