How much you think you'll be able to get them for? Poss interested, there was a post somewhere about seibon reducing their prices?

[Almost Finished]

The more we get the more the discount i hope , on seibons website they price it at £540 , but srb power sell for £528 , i will give them a ring soon to get some pricing/discount figures .

How easily can you get a carbon bonnet painted ?

They spray pretty much like anything matey, just have to key the surface and any good paintshop should be able to do it for you?

why would you want to spray it thats the point of owning a carbon bonnet,

Plus after owning a Seibon Myself i can say that the carbon weave looks abolsutley stuuning especially if caught right by the sun. Almost like a see of gold glitter on a black surface. Plus it weighs next to nothing.

Would suggest getting on the blower to figs for bonnet struts and remember the noraml bonnets struts maybe to strong for the carbon bonnet.

Please bare this in mind if you plan on purchasing one.

The highlighted bit is the reason I'd consider a carbon bonnet. It's a personal thing but I really don't like the look of a Platinum Ice IS200 with a black/carbon bonnet. Yes, I like the look of the carbon weave but I don't want a chequerboard car personally (just like we all have different tastes in colours, body kits, wheels etc, etc).

So if I ever bought one I'd paint it. Which does make me wonder if it would be worthwhile, it would just be the lighter weight. Could always go FRP of course.

I have seen a silver IS which had the sides of the bonnet painted leaving the middle carbon which i thought looked quite good/tasteful? great weight saver though you have to put some effort into lifting oem ones
