[sg_frost]

Hee hee, its actually a paint job
It does look like carbon, but is no lighter than a standard bonnet.
Looks good dont you think?

how the hell did they get that finish?

[sg_frost]

paint it grey, stretch a pair of tights over it and paint it black.

You must need a pair of tights from a woman with a fookin big @rse

Very, very clever

What is meant by that last comment, they are all little cherubs
The best of it is, some of the pattern is slightly off so it is not a perfect weave, but carbon fibre is not always perfect. The effect is really good, except for the scratches that have appeared

Mind you, would think twice about giving it a thrashing anywhere, god knows whats still loose
Brakes have been blead numerous times, still spongy pedal.

the guys have worked hard on it though
