Hahaha, thats exactly what i do...i sleep and wake up to my new car bits in my room for a long time before installing it in the car. This way you get MAX SATISFACTION of your purchases for your loved one. lol it will look awesome on the car for sure Olly.
It's definitely the best carbon bonnet for the EP3, mine is in that same condition as yours was before so i ended up taking it off. Nice to know there is hope in saving mine one day!
That would make a lot of sense! Just crazy that the gasket doesn't exist as a separate part number for EP3's. I can only assume they come with new EP3 washer jets
Awesome! I cant believe thats the same bonnet as before the refurb. Also i now have this image of 'Even more Future Olly' sitting in a front room with a glass of wine looking at the 'fine art' thats on his wall, which is actually just a collection of sexy car bonnets :p. Hehe
I Had to have faith in the process! Haha! Yeah, that sounds about right! May end up doing the same thing with the S2000 bonnet when I get around to that! Haha!
@@OllyRoss I get so jealous every time I watch one of your videos haha, I wish I had time and money to do my ep3 like yours what a car you have 😍 keep up the good work!
I had to file down my teg carbon bonnet for the jazz jets. Never had some much anxiety working on a car 😂 Can I ask how much you payed for the ppf? Been really tempted to get mine done with it.
Make sure that if you leave your bonnet open on the stand, that you actually leave it on the second hole where it will sit almost vertical! ... I have the same bonnet and leave my bonnet open after a spirited drive to have the engine bay cool down, was leaving it on the 1st hole and had it actually become bent and almost crooked ..
fantastic video again Olly, very applicable for me as well as i have a tegiwa bonnet with the same problem, do you have a list of shows or events that you will be attending for the rest of the year? would be great to meet you and get a pic of my car next to yours would be awesome also I have a spare bonnet if you need bits of it PM me
Thanks for watching! I am not too sure for the rest of this year to be honest. Next year I am planning to do more shows and meets. Japfest is a must for me so you can join in on my stand for the next one if you want? Will take you up on the bonnet offer. Just after those washer gaskets if you have any? Send me a DM on Instagram if you do have them
Do you care about it being branded with BuddyClub? It was made for them by a company called Shift Sports in Japan. They still sell it brand new but you won’t get the BuddyClub branding. It will cost just over £1000 though.
The bonnet i always wish I purchased over the Seibon Mugen one. Albeit the weave not flowing in the same direction as the grill would send me over the edge.
The quality of the videos is really insane, congrats!
Really nice ep3!
Thanks! I am glad it doesn't go unnoticed! Happy that you like the car too!

it will look awesome on the car for sure Olly.
Yeah, that is why it took so long to get on the car. It just looked so cool on the wall! Hahaha

Absolutely! Yeah, you shall have to save it in the future!
Pretty sure the jazz jets don’t come with gaskets because they are mounted onto plastic not a painted surface. Bonnet looks epic too
just about to comment this, remembered it from my Fit

Your attention to detail is great, nice video as always 👍
Thanks! The car is getting a lot closer to how I want it now! Thanks for continuing to watch the videos!
Looks amazing! I also had to file down the washer jet hole when I got my Tegiwa carbon bonnet. Was absolutely crapping myself 😅
It is a little scary isn't it?!
Awesome! I cant believe thats the same bonnet as before the refurb.

@@OllyRoss Look forward to seeing it mate. :)
Woooow looks sick, what a patience😂
Haha! Yeah, it was a long time coming!
Love the bonnet bro, keep it on the wall 😅 ART 👌
The ultimate baller move would be to get another one for the wall! Haha
@@OllyRoss I get so jealous every time I watch one of your videos haha, I wish I had time and money to do my ep3 like yours what a car you have 😍 keep up the good work!
@@Andy-ep3-007 You are too kind! It has been a long process though! over 7 years to get to this point
Looks awesome mate top work you have more patience than me would kill me seeing such a sexy part hanging on my wall haha looks spot on
Hahaha! I think that was why it took me so long to fit it! I still got to look at it every day! It did look sick on the wall though
Yes!!! Love it!
Got to be the best bonnet for the EP3!
Get the roof carbon wrapped 👌👌 I've done mine on a red preface to hide fade 😂
Or a real carbon roof! Haha! I actually like the amount of carbon on the car. Not so in your face (well... apart from this bonnet now! Hahaha)

That is good advice! I will need to file out the second hole as the prop doesn't fit at this point in time! Thanks for the heads up!
damn, this video popped just before me buying my carbon fiber bonnet for EP, I wonder how new one will look with Vivid Blue
I guess that is perfect timing on my part then! You can still get them brand new without the Buddyclub branding 👀
Fair play olly that bonnet is on fire 😍
How you finding the car with the cams etc, or have I gotta wait till you do a video to find out 😊
Thanks man! Glad you like it!
Hmmmm... that is an interesting video idea. Would you want to see a "Drop In Cams, My Experience" video?
@@OllyRoss yes please that be mint 👌
Should do a car park to cover it from the sun
Would love to but I don't have any way of doing it currently!
Isn’t better fille the jet then carbon bonnet?😅😂 but ok…look insane!❤
Meh... you will never see it and it saves future me any issues. To be fair, I hardly took any material away anyway
fantastic video again Olly, very applicable for me as well as i have a tegiwa bonnet with the same problem,

Unreal 😍
Thanks! I love it!
Hi Olly, do you know the weight diffirence between a OEM hood and the carbon hood? Tnx :) Greetz from Holland!
15-20lbs to stock
Not too sure on the actual figures but it is definitely lighter than OEM
What camera and microphone do you use to record? thanks
I use a Panasonic GH5 with a Canon 17-40mm lens to shoot on and I use the DJI mic's for the audio (in this video anyway)
Where can I find this bonnet?I had this on my ep3,I gave it and I'm looking for a new!!!I'm from Greece and my bonnet was from buddyclub
Do you care about it being branded with BuddyClub?
It was made for them by a company called Shift Sports in Japan. They still sell it brand new but you won’t get the BuddyClub branding.
It will cost just over £1000 though.
@OllyRoss thanks for it.its too difficult to get it from Japan. If I find it from Europe it's OK.i don't now about seibon,it's the same?
@@giorgossoldatos2100 Seibon are a US company but they do have European distributors
Sweet 👏🏽
Thanks! 😁
Doors and boot now
Haha! The boot would be cool but not too worried about the doors as it would break up the Grey too much I think
should have left it on the wall
Yeah... the baller move would be to get another one for the wall! Haha
The bonnet i always wish I purchased over the Seibon Mugen one. Albeit the weave not flowing in the same direction as the grill would send me over the edge.
The weave doesn't annoy me as much as I thought it would to be honest. I think its because it doesn't have a direction so it can flow either way
