Currently im doing a r32/4 conversion and barts just dropped off a 34gtt 4 door bonnet (i presume its the same lenght as the 2 door)

Unfortunetly the bonnet is about 20mm too short, which means I either have to go for a crappy frp job (specificaly for the 32.4 conversion) , or get the bonnet modified.

Given that vented frp's are a a fave for canairys, can anyone direct me to a fab shop in perth that would be able to do this sort of thing?.
Thanks

you should be ok with painted FRP...
i'm assuming your guards are FRP too, so it won't be your only issue if you get a dpi racing sticker.

bits that are meant to crumple.. FRP = nono

crumple zone panels are meant to be crash tested, 99% of FRP/CRP isn't.
thus why bonnets/guards/bootlids are picked on.

Fark, well in that case, I may as well go for broke and get a FRP bonnet too =/
