Josh Posted July 22, 2006 Share Posted July 22, 2006 I got a number a guy that makes fibreglass bonnets, but he doesnt have a mould for a mk1 capri bonnet, and to make a mould will cost an extra $300+ on top of the bonnet itself. So my question is, does anyone know anywhere that does fibreglass bonnets and could possibly have a mk1 capri mould? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peteretep Posted July 22, 2006 Share Posted July 22, 2006 there was a bonnet on trademe a few months ago im pretty sure, not much help haha I remember in the auction the guy kept mentioning the capri car club http://www.fordcapri.co.nz/ so you could talk to someone there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikuni Posted July 23, 2006 Share Posted July 23, 2006 Or just find a couply other chaps willing to chip in on the mould. 3 people, $100 each would be sweet. Would make the overall cost alot cheaper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raizer Posted July 23, 2006 Share Posted July 23, 2006 What were their prices like? When I talked to them a few years back they were quite pricey. Currently looking for a lot of panels for my Starlet so if they are a bit more reasonable now I might give them a try.Callum I havnt been out there for a couple of years now, but from memory i paid around $1100 for the 2 front guards, 4 mexico flairs, a bonnet scoop and the front valance. So yeah kinda pricey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
two_days_late Posted July 23, 2006 Share Posted July 23, 2006 They weren't too bad Callum, i paid about $170 for 4 flared guards for my escort, about an 85ml flare. Also got quoted around the same price for a front air dam. Cheers Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats stupid as if they get to keep the mould and make money off it after you are done. Should keep the mould if you can and sell it on trademe.

cute wee gem Posted July 23, 2006 Share Posted July 23, 2006 Call it Starlina, or Carlet.. rofl (Carina + Starlet) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikuni Posted July 23, 2006 Share Posted July 23, 2006 Call it Starlina, or Carlet.. rofl (Carina + Starlet) I reckon Starina. Awsome. I bet a girl called any of those names would be hott. I've met a couply called carina but they were about as pretty as a carina unfortunately. No where near as hot as a starlet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
