Tarmac Sportz Bonnet Dampers

Recommended Posts

These arrived from Chris at Tarmac yesterday so I fitted them today. I particularly wanted a non carbon set as I will no doubt spray the bodies blue or silver :D

So here are some close ups of all the component parts

Really straight forward to fit, remove the brake fluid and battery covers together with their surrounds. Remove the two bolts (one either side of the engine bay) discard these and remove the front most nut on the bonnet hinges. Fit the the top mounts onto the bonnet hinge bolt. Fit the top fixings of the dampers to the new top mounts. Use the countersunk bolt (more about this in a bit) to secure the lower damper mounts to the front wings, these replace the two bolts discarded earlier. Fit the the lower damper fixings to the lower mounts and replace the brake fluid and battery cover plastic surrounds. The surrounds fit perfectly over the lower fixings because of the countersunk bolts, so no need to trim plastic surrounds to fit. I also like the non metallic ball joints receptacle so very little chance of rust as experienced with other kit.

A doddle to fit, took me no more than half an hour or so, all in all seems like a good bit of kit :) I'm sure Mr Tarmac will be along soon with more details :thumbs:

Hi. Are these still available in carbon?

Thank you's

 

 

I only had Black and they all sold out over the weekend sorry

 

Strictly speaking we can't do these on our 370z can we

 

I know this is a 50

 

 

There are 370 ones available but they are not a popular mod as I think a bit of cutting is involved of the plastic in the engine bay

 

Thanks guys
