hey guys

I'm interested in buying a ztune style cf bonnet from MU secret

but i'm still uncertain of their quality and fitting

are these 100% cf or fibre glass coated with cf?

anyone here has bought one from them?

any feedback is appreciated

i know that Fab bought one...still waiting for a pic

cheers

Andy

im pretty sure its just fibre glass with a few sheets of carbon fibre over the top? correct me if im wrong but if u want proper carbon then expect to pay 2k+

hey man im a close friend of the guys there and get parts from them regularly. in regards to service its not bad compared to others i have encountered. theyre nice and approachable, and the carbon bonnet you are after is australian made. it is fibreglass skeleton with carbon skin over the top and fibreglass ontop of that for protection. theyre pretty good fitment should be pretty spot on as well coz my mate getting it (not sure if its on yet) for his 34 gtr.

like chi sed, expect to pay mega bucks for full dry carbon bonnets lol

same shit.... yeah thats it

[DAV-R32]

how much are you getting it for? try and compare their prices to other places.

I havent bought anything off them yet but from what i see on their site and the price they got on their items is pretty

high..

for example i was looking at their apexi AVCR $760 im "pretty " sure you or i can get it cheaper then that

frm Japan or the US for around $500-600

BUT that was just in the electronics section maybe their other sections are cheaper

yeah, you're spot on there

but for something that big (bonnet), it would cost an earth to get it shipped from Japan (or oversea)

[DAV-R32]

nahh i dont think i would ever import a bonnet ^_^

save the money and hassle and just buy local

but at the same time have to scout around for better price and save yourself hundreds

P.s the bonnet looks pretty nice and price is good $780, i saw on carmate and it cost $1k for a similar one

Hey Andy, ive been eyeing out the same bonnet for a while. I emailed them and they assured me that the bonnet will fit straight on with no work necessary, and that it is of good quality. I am heading over to Sydney in a couple of weeks to pick up my car and was planning on visiting them and fitting it to my car before purchase to see if their claim is correct and check the quality, and if its all good post my standard bonnet home. So if your willing to hold out until then ill be your guinea pig. You never know maybe they will do us a deal if we buy two

[andz]

thanks ^^^

you have PM

hey fellas iv had my bonnet on for about 3 weeks i did have to make a few mods like dye grind the hings so the gaps between the guards and bonnet were the same and the catcher that holds the bonnet down sits to low so i had to move that higher but its worth the money took me an hour to put it on but id advive to get some bonnet pins to hold the front down cause it may sit a bit high top secret make nice bonnet pins but r pricy need to get a digital camra so i can post sum pics try doing it tomorrow

keep in mind carbon fibre is illegal over fibreglass yeah I don't know if it will really matter considering most of our cars are illegal just keep it in mind ..

And flush bonnet locks look and perform heaps better than the old fashion ones, only $110 delivered..

hey fellas here a few pics of my car just finished respraying it blue with the cf bonnet Edited January 13, 2008 by fab34

Hey fab, love the colour.

The gap between the bonnet and the RHS guard seems a little big in the 3rd pic, is the gap symmetrical with the other side?

looking at getting a cf bonnet down the track

[fab34]

yea it could move to the right a few more mm just it sits a bit high so i need sum bonnet pins to level it with the guards and ones there on it will be closer to the guards and fit nicly

can't speak for a CF bonnet, but my experiences with Andrew at MU Secret are awesome, he was very helpful, gave good advice and the products were well priced and sent promptly when I bought. I got my Volks off him!

[fab34]

yea i have to agree his a top bloke and even that i had to do a few mods im happy with it and think its worth the price iv seen bonnets that people hav paid twice the amount and have had pin holes and air bubles all thought them so for 780 u cant complain

[Fujiwara]

I c that bonnet is for a GTT

When i last called, they said they only had GTR bonnets.
