Why Choose This Bonnet?
- Significant Weight Saving: Drastically lighter than the original steel unit, reducing the load over the front wheels for sharper turn-in and improved handling.
- Corrosion Proof: Unlike metal panels, this GRP construction is immune to rust, ensuring your bonnet stays crisp and structural for the life of the car.
- Competition Grade: Built to withstand the vibrations of track use while remaining light enough for easy removal during paddock maintenance.
- Direct Silhouette Match: Maintains the elegant, period-correct look of the Riley 1.5 while providing modern performance benefits.
Installation Tip: For a professional competition setup, we recommend using lightweight bonnet pins or quick-release fasteners. Ensure a "dry fit" is performed to check the gaps against the wings and radiator cowl before proceeding to final paint.
Key Point: Designed specifically to improve the power-to-weight ratio of your Riley 1.5.
SHIPPING NOTICE: Due to the large dimensions and risk of damage, this item is COLLECTION ONLY from our warehouse.
