Decapitation anyone?I think I'm over the modded bonnet thing now anyway. There's nothing like a nice sheen from a good polishing job - vents would just ruin it.

stang Donating Members 1,353 Member For: 21y 3m 25d Location: Melbourne Posted 03/08/06 06:24 AM Share Posted 03/08/06 06:24 AM me over it long time ago, I did alot of research , carbon fibre and fibre glass are illegal in vic and most other states. Companies that sell them will tell you they have never had any problems however the law states adr`s must be met ADR97 in particular (from memory) . I decided to go with the H.O option would have like some of the nissan type or even evo vents but weren`t pratical.
