ur car looks tops.good luck with it.

Fro-Daddy · 16-08-2005, 06:47 AM

does insurance cover you with a FG bonnet?

twilightprotege · 16-08-2005, 07:50 AM

nah, insurance wont cover the bonnet. well scumcorp certainly wont. i highly doubt any one would cover it.

Fro-Daddy · 16-08-2005, 04:37 PM

would the bonnet void all insurance? coz all the crumple zones in the bonnet are different...changing the crash characteristics if you get me...

i spose if you tell them and they still insure you (minus the bonnet) then you would be covered in a crash...

chicaboo · 16-08-2005, 05:09 PM

Good Q Ryan. If I put drop in vents or similar in the SP18's bonnet, what does this mean to my insurance Andy-WAN-Kenobi?

Fro-Daddy · 16-08-2005, 05:30 PM

im pretty sure if you dont modify the bracing/bars underneath then its all good...coz they are how the crumple stuff is determined...but just with insurance and get it WRITTEN!

chicaboo · 16-08-2005, 07:41 PM

I'm sure any openings/vents could be positions so that for the most part they don't conflict with the bars underneith.

twilightprotege · 16-08-2005, 08:12 PM

adding a vent/scoop to the bonnet is fine since that is allowable under qld dept of transport.

in an accident, they just wont pay for the bonnet. no biggie. naturally if the bonnet flys up and damages the car all of a sudden, not covered because the bonnet caused the damage. however 195kph and no bonnet flying up. yeah i'll be right.

boostedbatman · 17-08-2005, 05:33 AM

Would it be covered in an accident where you were not at fault??
Unless the at fault driver is also with Scumcorp

1MAQL8 · 18-12-2005, 01:48 PM

I agree with bonnet likers - I like it.

Where do you get something like that?

twilightprotege · 18-12-2005, 09:43 PM

i got the bonnet through a mate.

and thanks!

1MAQL8 · 18-12-2005, 11:28 PM

No worries, I'm thinking of getting something similar at some stage .... If my wife will let me

Matt · 19-12-2005, 04:14 PM
