OOOOOPSSS - didn't realise all eyes were on me!!!  I found a malaysian company selling carbon bonnets for the Mk5 GTI for £300 - a lot cheaper than £2000 from a UK firm I found.  But they went bankrupt   :sad:  I was planning on sourcing stuff nearer the time of delivery but since you guys want info I will find out this week.  Also can anyone recommend a good bodyshop where they can COMPETENTLY remove my bonnet and not scratch it in the process - and bubble wrap it for returning to standard when I get bored wasting Subarus, Type Rs and other crazy Japanese cars  :evil: :evil: :evil:
