as above,,,, mine seems to be about a inch short though the gaps at the edges are spot bollock on ?, the grill is over hanging by about half a inch which is making me think it might not be the bonnet but the front panel too far forward ?
anyone else have experience of carbon bonnets ?

what u gotta ask yourself is did the original bonnet fit ok?!
Cos if it did then ur front panel is fine and the bonnet u bought hasnt been made right, it should have been made exactly the same size as yours that was on there ie all cossie ones are the same from factory so should fit ur car ok, unless as said wasnt made very well!

toeknee my car has had a front impact and so has a new cross member and slam panel, headlamps, grill, bumper, BONNET, rad, cam belt cover and im sure more also pmsl
the lower part was mangled but the sides not bent,,, the wings where perfect and the sidelamps fine, the cross member being welding a little forward could be the reason as it fits on the sides to the back spot bollock on, all the edges meet PERFECT apart from he front is half a inch short in the middle
