I'm looking forward to seeing this at Combe Mr P.

Thankfully my @rse wont fit the seat so you don't get to drag me round the track.  :grin:

Have you had the bonnet fitted yet? I would like a carbon bonnet  :party:
Unsure as to weather this is true or not lol but I have been told that carbon items like bonnets,boot,wings etc never seem to fit like they should? I.E you'll have 1 gap on the 1 side that's about 4mm and on the other side it'll be about 6mm? So it looks like it doesn't fit properly?
Sorry for the silly question lol

It's being fitted today/tomorrow so I will find out when I collect the car on Friday  :party: :party:

I know the bonnets can lift at higher speeds (like NeilM has said) so I have added a set of aerocatches.

Saw the car yesterday after the big mod was finished and I can't wait to get it back now.
