So wot r the pros n cons with a mohair?
the only reason i am askin is cos where i park at work-there r seagulls who tend to sh!te all over me car so didn think it wud b worth me gettin one(all the time spent on cleanin it )-ur opinions?

i do need one thou-but is bottom of an ever growin list!
*def gonna hav to pimp the lasses in dublin*

i think the mohair looks nicer,more classy .the easy option if a seagull sh**es on your car is to carry a bottle of water and a sponge in the boot

[Dinky]

Or cud become more common if all u lot get em!
Yeah but u aint seen the amount of seagulls man-its like they have a radar for me car! -remember i live on the coast!
Sponge n water-r whayaye-course ill clean me car in company car-park!
Hope urs looks nice hun!

mines rustin on the bottom bit aswell so he's gonna check it out in the morning . been told he charges ?250 but well see in the morning

[eyeletboy]

had a price for the stayfast mohair hood.?250 all in.i looked at the twillfast hood also but couldn't see any differance in the quality.i was advised that the durability and the look of both hoods were exactly the same.i had this price from j.r.smith interiors and hoods in swansea.(01792 461022).most of the local dealers,vw,bmw,peugeot,renault and ford use this guy.

Does anybody know anybody that does hoods in the midlands region? also when you guys get your hoods replaced did you replace your seals? i thonk my hood needs everything replacing! outer skin! inner lining! and the bit in the middle that bit thats meant to reduce the sound ha!
