Title: Bonnet
Post by: jetpilot on November 08, 2005, 09:26:28 PM
Hi Guys

I have been reading the US forums and it would seem, maybe just in the US, some FC\'s come with ally hoods other than the Convertible. Is this the same for us or is it just the Verts.

If it is just the verts, does anyone know where i can get a fiberglass flat hood for one??

Thanks

in the Uk, just the convertibles were ally far as I remember, but in the Us some others did have ally bonnets as did ones like the final Infini Iv version

Brett, I\'m damn sure mine (G reg EGi) wasn\'t aluminium, it weighed a ton!,
perhaps yours had been fitted later, I know that it can be done
either way it\'s a good thing to do

Well, I\'ve had 2 Egis, one had a steel bonnet the other had an Ally bonnet.  Funnily enough it was the 88 that had an alloy bonnet (Although I suspect it may have had a front end smack at some point) the 89 had a steel one.
