    you cant buy any official ones , the stock bonnet is pretty heavy and not ideally suited to them but i made this kit fit and mine worked fine for a few months (havent got round to fitting them post respray ) but i hear others have had problems

    I also had them fitted on my last car which had a carbon bonnet. I'm not sure how they would perform on a standard heavier bonnet.

    The stock bonnet kills them fairly quickly.

    I think I had about 5 lifts of the bonnet before they went. With a fibreglass or Carbon Fibre one though your laughing as they'll take that kind of weight with ease.
    There is no such thing as cynicism, it is merely realism born out of experience.
