You damaged your carbon bonnet. Hearing this is like having a bullet in my heart. Hearing about a written off Carbon bonnet its.....its like losing a piece of me.

Sorry to hear about your crash too.

If its bent? I doubt it.

If its scratched! I reckon you could repair it.

A crack, not so sure.

Either way!

Could of maybe just bent the hinges. Carbon fibre is meant to be pretty flexible. I remember seeing a picture in a magazine years ago of some guy standing on his carbon bonnet so it was all dented in then when he jumped off it went back to how it was...

Yes it did. But after the accident the bonnet wasnt loose or anything just scratched, but then driving up the hill it just lifted and bent back.
