If there's a bonnet around pepper jump on a set of scales with it!

Quote:Nah, you wouldn't want it anyway, mine's a GL bonnet.

Geez mate, ... you got my number.
But just out of curiosity, everybody can call it a GX bonnet & nobody says anything, yet I quite rightly & properly call it a GL bonnet, & I am the subject of ridicule?
There were a LOT more GL's sold than there ever was GX's sold, yet I am to be made fun of.
Why is that I wonder.

im glad you found the humor in it.

Thanks to re,pump australia (the blokes in the factory next to mine ) my vacum set up will be ready tommorow .also the rep from fibre glass international will be around with some material and giving me a demo on vacum infusion. there will not be any price changes on parts .carbon bonnets will still be $600......

Stop talking crap Geoff... the mould for the GX bonnet wasnt made by an FGI rep... it was made by Luke Brown! I suggest you do some homework before claiming to know what you are talking about!

well all i can do is apologize for talking crap....
if thats the truth ,well so be it ,no hard feelings peddler .cheers geoff

Hi Guys I have been asked to have a look at this site by my cousin clint and his son Luke .My name is Rick I work as a Tech Sales. Rep for fgi Gold Coast.I specialise in infusion and have been involved in the mould making and infusion process of these bonnets.I have noticed people asking where the kevlar is ,the kevlar is sandwiched between 2 layers of 198g carbon twill.The kevlar is 300g satin weave .The resin that is used is a vinyl based infusion resin which has a Heat Distortion Temp of 120-130deg whereas epoxy only has a HDT of 70-80deg after post curing.

Hey Geoff,

Have you got around to making a front spoiler for a 120y?
I would be interested in a boot lip spoiler aswell, like the RS2000 or SLR5000 used to have.

cheers
