The Chargespeed is not just a buy-and-fit jobbie like most others and it does require a good bit of work.

 

Also, you 'will have to remove all of your bonnet latching mechanism and apply good quality bonnet pins to get it to fit (and to add the safety factor too).

 

Don't be put off by it though as its worth every penny.

 

It depends where you go but I would budget between £800 and £900 for the whole job.

 

1. Bonnet is £450 delivered but i got it for £395 (not sure if that can be done anymore) - From Trojan Sport in Essex

2. Aeroctach Pins were £42(ish) delivered but you need to have someone who really knows how to fit these correctly:Pling: They look nice in the packet and bloody great on the car but the in between bit is not easy!

3. Bonnet alignment and paint (not as cheap as others due to its 9 meshed vents) was £200

4. Labour for bonnet catches, (grinding, cutting, building supports and difficult alignment job was £140

 

I'm over at Twisted Vision today so I'll get better shots I hope (there are some unfinished pics in my garage already)

 

Hope this helps mucka

Thanks mate, that's exactly the sort of info I was looking for.

 

I'll get some more pics today mate.

 

Personally speaking, I would drop your car off with the guys down in my sig block - I realise that its a bit of a hike for you but you can be confident of getting an outstanding result (and at good money too).;)
