There is a company in slacks creek called Panelhouse selling them for $425. Has anyone dealt with them before? I'm wandering what the quality will be like? Has anyone used the Bogan special or All Crash parts Bonnets? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably be a sh*t in an accident like carbon fibre I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The beater and myself were happy with the fit quality. Ill post pics up directly. One thing to consider is u will need a new bonnet insulator as the six cyl one does not fit the bulge!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
