yea i couldnt agree with you more dna its nearly half the price!!
just asked him if itspre-pregged carbon - autoclaved but from the message on the post
" White neon washer jets already fitted with washer jet tubes attached so swapping is just 4 bolts and plug in a tube! " i dont think he would have a clue...

plus pre-preg isnt all its cracked upto be - its more expensive and any FRP/GRP workshop worth their salt will know the correct lay up and weightings procedure - it is good yes - but for a bonnet the extra price of pre-pregged carbon isnt anything special

it is good - but not amazing if you get soem1 who knows how to wet lay up properly - u'll get the same result
pre-preg just mean u get the correct resin amount per sq metre - already evenly spread over the carbon - ie it pre-impregnated with Resin
I doubt that bonnet is pre pregged casue it'd cost more than its worth to sell - Ive got one roll of Pre-Preg in the freezer and it only comes out for special occasions
