I remebered seeing something like this posted a while back. Here are the details:
Hi, This is Rick posting under Jaz's login.
After so much positive feedback after such a short period of time I feel I should update people on what is happening. Sorry for the slowness of my reply.
I am only making AE86 Sprinter bonnets
A's to Q's:
Stock bonnet: ~15Kg
Full carbon: ~5.5/6Kg dependant on locking system (factory or bonnet pins)
Half bonnet (carbon/metal frame): ~7Kg
Freight cost: Additional to purchase. Possibly COD but will look into when it comes around. Maybe too big for post, so national frieght or something with insurance to cover damage in shipping.
Details of bonnet: Construction is full woven sheet (black), these arn't carbon/kevlar!
Full carbon bonnet is made from two seperate moulds for top and bottom vacuumed together. Each mould consists of UV stable clear gel coat on surface followed by one layer of carbon backed by fibreglass.
The resins used are specific to the carbon fibre work.
Bonnets are paintable upon receival using regular methods.
For any further questions: call after 6pm on 0410 654 912
