    Could you get a carbon effect vinyl wrap for your bonnet? How much would these cost? For people who want carbon bonnets and not to bothered about the weight saving but want the looks!

    we would love to make a carbon bonnet but it will cost us a lot of money to get the mould made. We dont think we would sell enough to make our money back going on how many mk2 ones we have sold.
