IanS16 Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 Sorry Jay.. havent got one but thought you may want to hear my opinion. I've had 2 carbon bonnets, a seibon one and a Varis one. The seibon one was a loose fit, the Varis one is perfect! Think its reflected in the price though! Also the Seibon one touched the strut brace after installing a plenum spacer!

martinmac Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 Sounds like a consensus so far Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris`I Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 Yup Phil agrees that Varis is far superior fit. Thats why I went for the Varis lip. Weave and fit is perfect, but you do pay for it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 My Seibon bonnet isn't a perfect fit. You will need to cut out a section of the underside to make it fit with the strut Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hotrain69 Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 Yup Phil agrees that Varis is far superior fit. Thats why I went for the Varis lip. Weave and fit is perfect, but you do pay for it what are the prices approximately then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobD7 Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 Yup Phil agrees that Varis is far superior fit. Thats why I went for the Varis lip. Weave and fit is perfect, but you do pay for it what are the prices approximately then? +1 for the Varis bonnet price? Also, Jay I thought you were selling your car!?!?

You'd have to PM a trader for an exact price, but I think they were around the £750 mark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
