Swaged bonnet $250 need to sell ASAP strapped for cash

$400 and its your it cost me over $700 so I cant go any lower than $400

 

Is rain a problem? and if it not then why.

Because it water would slope into the hole

 

yeah water will get in through the vent

 

Ok I really am stuck for cash and will take $350 .
It cost me twice that to make.
It would be good if someone in SE QLD wanted it and and I could drop it off.
$350

 

STILL FOR SALE

 

dude id take it off your hands if you were in WA. or if you can organise some cheep cheep shipping

 

I think post to WA would cost around $200 ??? so I can find out for you.
At that price its still at lot less than what I payed to have it done .
But I do understand if thats to much.

 

figured that. nah sorry gov think its best 2 sell 2 a local boy..

 

Still for sale make an offer

 

hmmm, what material is the bonnet. is it all metal or just the vent.???

 

Its an original alloy bonnet with a swaged vent and the little frame is alloy aswell.

 

Here is a quote from the WA licencing page, relevant for any WA buyers:

http://dpi.wa.gov.au/licensing/1913.asp

And page 11 of this document by dotars represents the national code of practice:

And it seems to say that bonnet bulges are ok

Although personally, I like the original lines of the Zed, and hiding the vent is ideal in my opinion - also will attract less attention from LEO's

However, the vent is a little close to the windscreen in my opinion, which is a high pressure region - take a look at the EVO's rear-facing-vents and you'll see it's just after the lip of the bonnet which is a low pressure region and will suck the air out. High pressure regions force air, that's why some model cars have their air intakes right next to the windscreen

 

If you are interested, I can't imagine there would be any disadvantage in the rain aK. Your engine gets wet every time you wash your car and when it rains anyway (spray from wheels etc). If the only reason you are turned off this buy because of this, look at Greg's (pexzed). If he can drive in the rain with that bonnet you could drive with none at all!!!
PS I love your car Greg.:zlove:

 

I cant belive no one want this.
Its really well made and will look unreal on the right car.

 

i would take it off you, but its just the issue with the rain. Only if their was a solution to stop watter getting in

 

Just put a little flap there that open rearwards with the direction of airflow but closes if its not moving like oil traps in a sump. I don't know how you would do it but a hinge would operate like this.

 

Ok now im really straped for cash and Will take
$250 and you organise all your own transpost or pick up
There is nothing wrong with this bonnet and I mean nothing ,at this price I lose big time .
But I need money asap so get a bargain

 

You organise your own transpost or pick up
I lose big time on this but I need cash asap and want to sell.
I just dont get why no one has wanted this as its a pro job that cost a small fortune
See old post above for pics

 

i think you'll find most people don't want it because water/rain will easily get into your engine bay.
