Everything I have come across in my research says there is issues with running aftermarket cf hoods. I doubt you can rely on saying a GT3 RS has a cf hood if you get pulled over. Not my rules, just stating what I know already. You can have a custom fibreglass hood made that complies with ADR but it will cost $$$ and there will be some down time.

If unsure, call Dept of Transport.

Also you've mentioned a few times you want to keep your car street legal but uncertain about catless dp's which are illegal. Doubt anyone would ever pick up on it but having a CF bonnet is illegal and very noticeable. At least dp's are discreet.

Not saying you shouldn't do any of these mods, but they are clearly illegal when your philosophy is about being street legal.

My philosophy is building a decent street/track car. One that I can drive every day of the week and take to track. Only things I ever need to change are wheels/tyres and drop the oil/filter and brake fluid after each event.
