Gary,

The velocity bodywork is taller, I nearly went this route but they didn't do a bonnet without the vent/bulge which i didn't like. Can't remember if its 1" or 2" taller, worth haggling at stoneleigh for a good price

stoneleigh is may bank holiday (sun/mon at beginning of month) maybe worth ringing ahead and collecting it there to make sure hey have the colour you want. They offered me 5% discount on the phone when i was ringing round for prices if i was to order that day.

From what 've seen its very good, though never scrutinised too closely. Edges and returns are the best places to check to see how well the gelcoat has gone into the mould and how well its released when pulled out.
