i might look good in the right style of car but the volvo is far too classy and upmarket for a carbon bonnet. if it was more race inspired then it would suit

Would look well but Adam made an excellent point earlier, should only be bought when the car is sufficiently tuned to make a marginal weight loss worth spending money on.

some s40's running easily 300-400 brake..Alot in the states.

I would start with chip remap which should see 240bhp....£550 from dastek.

Think thats a big no then on bonnet

I'll try and dig out the photos of the ones stateside.

I don't think it will look that bad on your colour of car. Could work quite well. I think I would spend the money on a remap though...

I'm planning to get a carbon bonnet for my coupe next year when I buy a 7-seater for my daily driver. Coupe will then be stripped out and fitted with buckets and used soley for fun/track days etc.
