Club Autosport fibreglass panels

Carbon parts are wet layup not vacuum prepreg. As such they are a bit lighter and stronger than fibreglass, but not much. I was advised to go for fibreglass. When the salesman is telling me to spend half the money I listen.

I run a clubautosport bonnet, have done for a few years.

Like MC, I was set on carbon but ended up with fibre-glass, there was no weight saving with the carbon and I was having it painted. - No issue with strength, and the finish was decent and didnt need a lot of work before painting.

The fit is ok at best, front edge is fine, sides are not great.
 
I have fitted the bonnet on mine, as said previously, the fit at the front and the rear is good, but the fit at the side is not great. I have been told by them that I can remove the bonnet and weight it and heat it to try to get it to fit better, which from the sounds of it means that it isn't the first time that this has happened.

Did you end up ordering the bumper? I am thinking of doing the same.
