My brand new carbon bonnet arrived today from knight racer ..

But. .

It's bloody cracked . Only a tiny crack but I'm anal about my car .
This is going straight back.

I'll post some pics later .
Not spoken to them yet as I've only just opened it. .

Should have known tho as the box was damaged ..
Luckily I've taken pics while i was unwrapping it of the box etc

Unlucky Rob, probably the bloody courier's fault, they don't give a toss about people parcels

That sucks, the bonnet does look awesome though. Did it have a handle with care sticker or anything on the box?

That's not good. How much did you pay for it?

Wouldn't have made any difference to the clumsy retard couriers anyway as if they see a handle with care sticker there even more likely to kick the thing around, nightmare delivering stuff like this, really disgracefull by the couriers, about time these people that handle parcels and damage them like that were sacked or made to pay for damage they cause out their own pay packets
Very bad

Mate should have refused to sign for it before checking the item and just sent it straight back with the box looking like that.

I didn't sign for it. ..

I've had several emails back and forth and it's going back to them. .
I just hope they don't try and get it repaired

impossible repair to suitable standard.
You need replacement.
carbon fibre you get in this sort of products generally is not the best in terms of quality construction, resin & moulding technique.
Hope they do decent thing & claim on courier & you get perfect replacement.
company really needs to package better & be a bit more selective on couriers it uses.

Wow, all that money for something so light and fragile in its own way you would think they would take care off it and would replace it straight away seeing as you have pics to prove it all
