Hey mate, be careful when choosing the struts because they will deform the boot if they are too strong *EVEN* if at first sight they seem to close ok.
A friend of mine had this problem with this carbon bonnet after 2 months! (when installed it looked/aligned perfect)

Keep us posted.  :driver:

Thanks for the info mate. How many kilos do you think it's shaved off the rear end?

without the window in there is a huge difference mate.. when my lexan rear screen comes and is fitted i will remove it and weight them both, im sure there will still be a very good weight saving with the rear screen fitted especially a lexan one

Struts direct will do you oem spec/ fitment struts but at a lower force. They do adjustable ones so you can get it just right.

sounds like the perfect solution.. not decided wether going to use a strut on it not or yet, but thanks for that

The fit of that Seibon part looks really flush. I'd personally go for Valeos with the carbon boot for better contrast. The R32/ED30 are too dark now and would look better on another tornado red GTI. :drinking:

Moving over to Flickr, sorry for the broken picture links!
