ClubCJ - The CJ Lancer Club

Ok so after a storm with hail the size of tennis balls (Yes in South Africa...), my bonnet looks like shit with quite a few chips (somehow the rest of the car is still kinda intact lol), im gonna need a respray... or while im at it should I just get the evo bonnet?

I hate the lancer's thin paint...

evo CF bonnet ftw no need for paint no chance of rust or paint chipping

Evo bonnet sounds good Maverik
Sorry to hear about the hail damage mate
Lucky the car isn't worse than it is!

Yeah I would get a CF bonnet, but its not the best thing to have in an accident... Im leaning more towards the aluminium OE evo X bonnet. Unless I have a bunch of CF panels, a head on collision with a CF bonnet will be quite dangerous

I'd avoid having a head-on in the first place - Head on accidents are basically death anyway, vector displacement or whatever the speed of the accident is the speed of your car PLUS the speed of his/her car, so in a 100kmph zone its about 200kmph, taking away discrepancies such as one car speeding or being driven by an old person. I'd rather swerve off the road and hit a power pole at 100kmph anyday.

go the new bonnet dude! I parked my car under a tree a while back and the birds took aim at the bonnet and I stupidly didn't wash it for ages and now have huge marks in the paint as a constant reminder to WASH MY CAR REGULARLY! I'm gonna get the EVO/ralliart bonnet as soon as I can afford it rather than respray cos it looks awesome!

wouldn't hitting two objects head on both going 100km/h wouldn't that only be a collision of 100km/h not 200. the point of collision will be 0km/h making both objects only having a 100km/h collision, but if the two objects have different mass then the smaller mass object will receive a harder hit.
i think its something like that anyway. from what i remember of doing physics.
