Think they re available but in germany.
Was gonna do some bonnets and hatch last year but work came up so i gave it a miss. might give it a go this year seeing as i only have a 3 month contract again. A lot of boy racer stuff is proper s##t so a lot of people think all fibreglass is like that which is why i wanted to do some decent ones.

i've been weighing it as i go so far, 

need to find a friendly blasting company atm to get teh car back to bare metal, i tryed with my sand blaster but being total loss even just use kiln dryed sane ( with an air fed mask ) the materials are quite epensive and very messy. also the air compressors sort of told me to f**k off after running flat out all day.

atm it a bare shell with a bit of surface rust but with no underseal at all,   onec it back to shiny metal and reprimed i think things will start moveing again
