anyone using seibon ek carbon bonnet?

[linh-ej9]

im ordering one tomorrow, just want to know if they come with pre drilled holes for washer jet?

i am using one . they do come with holes for the washer yet but they dont fit . you either need to get your dremmel out and trim them out a little bit or just lighlty file down the washer jets to fit the the whole . 5 min job and great quality bonnet

hmm i have no access to a dremel can i use a drill instead or will that crack/damage the carbon.

a file works a treat
i think i might of even cut it open wider with a knife before filing it lol

Yea same as my seibon bonnet.. I just used a round file..

Hay dude how is your ej9 these days?
How much did that cost?

 

[linh-ej9]

thanks for the advice guy, il go buy a round file.

cr1s - ej9 is fine, only buying a carbon as some fools out a dent on my bonnet and wing.

carbon bonnet cost £428 from amber performance, ijwhiteman(ian) spoke to them and they give ek9 user 10% off so il call them on tuesday see if they can give me anything.

sorry didnt see this before, fitment is spot on

you will have to use the rubber gasket from your old bonnet if you dont want gaps between the bonnet and the headlight.
