We only generally make OEM replica's, 'bad boy' and other modified bonnets are very possible, but we would need quantity orders (5 or more) before we'd begin production. 
 
Carbon fibre roof skins are £295.

do the skins go in place of the roof, or just a thin layer of carbon to bond on top of the original roof?

For roof skins, the idea is to cut out most of your original roof sheet metal, leaving about 50mm margin around the edges. The new carbon skin bonds to this. There can be pretty decent weight savings if you have a sunroof, and still worth while otherwise. Many do it just for the carbon looks.

We're looking to do the bonnets very soon now (standard OEM shape, not bad-boy) they're the next thing on our list now the Nova moulds are done. Other parts will follow. Wings are already available, just need 5 people to get together with orders, or you can approach us individually if preferred. Will offer the door trims at 5% off to anyone interested before the end of the month.

so far: we have 4 people wanting wings, 4 people wanting bonnets and a mixture of other things. 
 
To confirm, we do need 5 orders before we can go ahead with a discounted group-buy, but people are welcome to approach us individually if they can't wait! 
 
cheers, Mike
