The 'E' Type Forum

Well I was thinking about changing my original bonnet (of course I will keep it safely...) by a fiberglass model.

So I would like to know what is the weight of an original bonnet and a fiberglass one ? I already know that an aluminium bonnet weights 28 kgs.

If anyone as an answer...

I was told 47 Kg bare Rod Jay at jaguar racing panels

Closer to 70Kg would be my estimate.

I read somewhere that it’s about 50kg without lights, bumper trim etc.

All I know for sure after taking mine off a few weeks back... it’s bloody heavy!!
