As the tittle says just wondering on if people would be interested in carbon fibre bonnets to suit both clubman and round nose minis. If people are interested i will prob begin to make them too. I will determind the price in the next couple of weeks and post prices and more information and maybe even some pics of bonnets if i have it done by then.

The stickers would only be good if they were really strong and light.
