Does this bonnet require a different striker or latch hardware?

No, the Top Secret R34 Aero Bonnet uses the factory striker without modification, so no separate latch hardware is needed to install it on the R34 Skyline GT-R.

Does it actually improve cooling, or is it just a lighter hood?

The Top Secret R34 Aero Bonnet is shaped to improve engine bay heat dissipation as well as add front-end downforce, beyond the weight savings from switching off the factory steel hood.

Does this bonnet come painted or clear coated?

No, it is shipped unpainted in raw dry carbon fiber, the same as every other Top Secret carbon product. Prep and clear coating happen as part of the installation process.

Why choose dry carbon fiber over wet carbon for a bonnet?

Dry carbon fiber is used on the Top Secret R34 Aero Bonnet for its lighter weight and higher rigidity compared to wet-layup carbon, which matters on a body panel that also needs to hold its shape at speed.

Description

Top Secret Dry Carbon Aero Bonnet for R34 Nissan Skyline GT-R

The Top Secret R34 Aero Bonnet is built for the R34 Skyline GT-R in dry carbon fiber, chosen for its combination of light weight and rigidity over a factory steel hood. The design works on two fronts: aerodynamically, it’s shaped to improve heat dissipation out of the engine bay and add downforce over the front axle, and visually, the weave itself is left exposed as a finish rather than hidden under paint. The factory striker carries over without modification, so there’s no separate latch hardware to source for install.

Features

Dry carbon fiber construction
Extremely lightweight and durable
Improves engine bay heat dissipation
Adds front-end downforce
Uses the factory striker without modification

Applications

Nissan Skyline GT-R: R34 | 1999-2002

Notes

The factory striker can be used without modification, so no separate latch hardware is required for installation

Additional Information

The Bulletproof Automotive website contains many thousands of products purchased in multiple different currencies. All of the prices are entered manually and accurately at the time of entry. Due to the consistently fluctuating international exchange rates, at times prices may not be able to be honored at their original intended rate. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, unfortunately our website is unable to compensate dynamically for what can at times be volatile changes in the cost of items due to currency values fluctuating, changes in prices from suppliers, changes in shipping and import duties, and other factors. Rest assured that any order you place on line will be at zero risk to you in this area. If in the event your order cannot be fulfilled at the original intended website price we will offer you a 100% refund, no questions asked. We will continue to do our best to maintain updated prices and we will always continue to offer our price match guarantees as well to ensure our prices are always the best for you. In short, prices may change without notice. It is always advised to give us a call prior to placing your order online to confirm availability and to confirm current pricing.

Shipping Policy

Items that are in stock in the US, either at Bulletproof’s warehouse or at a supplier’s warehouse, are generally delivered within 7-10 days. Special order items from overseas take considerably longer. As a courtesy Bulletproof offers delivery estimates to our customers which take into consideration manufacturer availability and shipping schedule. These estimates represent our best guess based on previous orders from the manufacturer and do not in any way imply a guaranteed delivery window. Many manufacturers work in a “just in time” inventory system and often take 2-20+ weeks to produce an item once an order is submitted. All deliverable items are then sent to our Japanese warehouse. Bulletproof ships a minimum of one full ocean freight container every month from Japan, oftentimes more than one a month. Ocean freight takes an average of 4 weeks. Typically it breaks down to one week in Japan for paperwork and customs, two weeks by boat and one week in US customs/clearance. Due to the wide number of variables between manufacturer and shipping schedules, delivery estimates are simply just that – estimates. We attempt to estimate conservatively and we usually deliver faster than our estimates suggest. It is not Bulletproof’s policy to guarantee delivery time of any special order item, this is impossible for us to do. By ordering you acknowledge that there is no required delivery ETA and an order may not be canceled or altered due to manufacturing or shipping delays, all ETA’s are provided as a best guess only. Please review the full Terms & Conditions here.

BP Pricing Difference

We do pricing a little differently on our JDM brands and we believe in making things simple and clear. No hidden fees or surcharges. Every price you see includes the shipping cost to our office in Los Angeles, California and all the associated taxes/duties/fees for bringing the products into the US. The only shipping you ever pay is from our facility in the US to your location. Be wary of resellers that don’t include the cost of international shipping in their pricing on JDM parts. While we believe we’ll always have the lowest all-in price on JDM products, we offer a price match guarantee for all authentic parts purchased from authorized dealers as well. For many international customers, it’s much more affordable to ship from the USA than from Japan directly, as the air freight and ocean freight costs are typically much less. However, for customers looking to ship directly from Japan outside of North America, or domestically in Japan, we can provide pricing specifically for that scenario. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any pricing questions or concerns. Please email us at sales@bulletproofautomotive.com with any inquiries.
