Hey guys,

I am on the hunt for a carbon fibre bonnet HOWEVER there seems to be a very small market of companies that make them the only ones i can think of is Seibon who are priced at £750 which i think is a bit much and i think Buddyclub do one too?

Is there an alternative company i do not know about? Or could we get a group buy and get something from the states for reasonable price?

Cheers

Buddy club is discontinued so only available 2nd hand, and they never come up for sale.

Shift sports versions of the BC bonnet are available but make the Seibon seem cheap (Even in a Group Buy).

You may want to give some of the forum traders a shout, to see what's available.

unfortunately its what they cost. most seibon carbon bonnets are around £700, as said above, start shopping in japan for one and seibon will look a very reasonable price

That's seems like a good price. Just depends how good quality the bonnet is...
Have you got any pics Lufoli? Also how long did you have it for?
Good fitment?

From what I've been told the "buddyclub" bonnets were all made by shiftsports and then re-branded.

I think i'll wait out until another member decides to break their DC5 and sell the bonnets, do you guys know anyone who has wrapped their bonnets in carbon?

indeed, shift sports are very good quality, but 110,000 yen plus tax, import duty, VAT and shipping. cost me nearly £300 to ship a bonnet from japan last year! yr man here wants it on the cheap..
