I work in the formula 1 industry machining carbon for RedBull, Toro Rosso, Honda, McLaren so could help but not if your looking for bonnet sizes
 
The maximum sheet size we stock is 500mm x 500mm generally what thickness are you after

Carbon fibre

Hi mate,

Bit harsh I think on the last post, but thats my opinion. Yu cant get bonnets for most cars these days, but the problem is an availability issue. Most companies order carbon fibre internationally pre moulded for bonnets and roofs, so off cuts are rare indeed, and pricey. (Lamborghini have a reclaim program that buys most of the off cuts as they have 2 peices in their engines that always need replacing at £1000 a piece) However, you can get companies that will forge you a bopnnet or roof, depending on your needs, but its a cost issue. Pro-Drive Might do it for you, Brabus defo will, so will AMG, Marcos, Rinseed. If youre looking at a Garage or retgail outlet to look at, Vospers will be your first bet and talk to their parts depot. (go to vospers.com, find your local dealer and ask.) If ther is no luck, speak to fiat in Italy, or "Ital styling" who do alfa and fiat, theyll sort you out. But again, ill remind you, there is a cost...

Hope this heps..

If you have enough money for a Carbon Fibre bonnet then fair play to you but why? by a better car
 
thats for the informative reply, i was hoping to get a big enough sheet so i could do it myself really. i found one company that does big sheet...but not big enough lol
