CD · 12-10-2008, 01:45 PM

... couldnt resist

i know this my latest mod will have very mixed opinions ! (but if i posted this in the US section im sure the majority would say it was 'sick' )

(sorry for camera phone picture and the bonnet isnt exactly pollished)

( boot next

)

willhollin · 12-10-2008, 01:48 PM

Is that real or wrapped?

dxb335d · 12-10-2008, 01:57 PM

thats looks very cool mate. Especially with your other mods and with the car being black.

And what Will said +1

beemerbird · 12-10-2008, 02:10 PM

Chris, you told me no more mods lol.

Looks good actually.

DonM3 · 12-10-2008, 02:44 PM

Sick, Phat and Ill

If its real CF whats the weight savings?

M3-FAST · 12-10-2008, 03:17 PM

Is that a whole CF bonnet Chris, or is it a vinyl?

The fit is fantastic if that is a replacement bonnet!

Maybe these next Chris......http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/BMW-E92-E93-3-...%7C240%3A1318?

SoYank · 12-10-2008, 03:34 PM

When are they coming out with the CF wings, doors, and bootlid?

Aurora Bearialis · 12-10-2008, 07:40 PM

WHOA WHOA WHOA!!!! First of all, those pics are taken with a camera phone? That's crazy clean pics for a phone lol. The car is pretty darn cool too.

Mark II · 12-11-2008, 02:15 AM

Very nice Chris - goes perfectly with the black as well

Are you thinking of the Vorsteiner VRS boot?

Been looking after one of those myself but haven't got around to it yet - don't tell me you're gonna beat me to it?

E902717 · 12-11-2008, 03:23 AM

I keep looking but the price is putting me off... But it would look really good on my car.

Does anyone do a CSL style rear spoiler that can be blended to the original lid?

marriedblonde · 12-11-2008, 08:31 AM

Oh and the bonnet looks great

Steve A · 12-11-2008, 09:32 AM

looks very good.

i wonder if it would look a little to mutherf**kingPIMP on the M6??

brett23 · 12-11-2008, 10:11 AM

Yes J,

I guess what you're after is the Aero Deck spoiler, which is a Vorsteiner add-on spoiler - instead of the full bootlid. It's available in both CF and Pur-Rim versions. The profile isn't quite as aggressive as the full bootlid but still looks good.

The full VRS job looks even better and smoother but it is £££'s - think I've spent enough this year....2 weeks to go

CD · 12-12-2008, 03:29 AM

Thanks for all the possitive coments , i honestly didnt expect most people to like it !!

come on Will, we are in a recession time

its purely cosmetic, carbon fibre wrap. Everyone who i have shown it to so far is convinced its a new genuine carbon bonnet, its that perfectly flawless a job. And before anyone goes on about it defeating the object and adding more weight etc

i think the easiest way to counterbalence it is for me to just drink one glass less of water at lunch time

it weighs hardly anything and looks as everyone has said very cool

Another beneift is that i can take it off (with a little heat and and an hour to spare) when i trade the car to return it to stock, stone chip free

... and lets face it, is about 5 or 6 times cheaper than a real vorsteiner or equivalent bonnet.

hmi1750 · 12-12-2008, 06:07 AM

cool wrap... my bonnest is so chipped maybe I should get the front end reprayed and then just wrap the whole front.

Amazing what they can do - certainly looks the part at a fraction of the price.

Nice one.

Thats not too bad but does look a bit of an after thought, add on... I guess if your going to do it you gotta spend the money!
