  1. there are no inner ribs on the bonnet as it is a full foam core construction. Other bonnets i have seen are a carbon outer skin with a glass fibre substructure. This creates a reasonably light yet brittle structure. The benifit of the foam core full carbon construction is you get an ultralite bonnet with a high tolerence to damage, the down side is it is harder (with out £100000's of equipment) to get a high cosmetic finish without painting but i have overcome this now. Have a look at the grey Rallye in Jan PVW as all the carbon including the bonnet, which i hade painted, i made. You cannot tell the bonnet is not steel without opening or tapping it. I will have finished the bonnet mould for the late type corrado soon. Drop me an e-mail and i can post picks when i have them. mailto:[email protected]
  2. Sorry you dont like my bonnets phatvr6, i am guessing from your comments that you have not seen one in the last 6 months at least. My bonnets are made using only carbon fibre, core material and alloy mounting brackets, not one strand of glass fibre goes anywherenear them. They are designed to be a light weight replacement that stands up to being 'used'. Corrado bonnets will be available soon both primered and gloss carbon 500 and 600 pounds respectively. As an idea Mk2 golf bonnets are 3-4 kg depending on spec.
