Looking at the MMC online shop website this evening, I see they are now offering a luggage rack, covers and a leather bonnet strap.

The luggage rack looks really sharp. It looks as though the roll hoops have to be drilled in order to install this or are there predrilled holes there? I think it would be nice if the bracket pieces were painted black.

Oh dear, the pedant in me is scratching to be let out... Damm, it's escaped... A three wheeler of the body type of the new one, and my Super Sports Aero does not have a bonnet. The strap on the website is pictured placed on the cowl. True on the new car, the panel is removable, but that is not the definition of a bonnet. Ahh, I feel better for that

Thanks Ivan for the heads up. As Krod says the rack does look sharp, though in my case I'm glad it's chromed!

I love that its chromed myself, I just wish that the plate that is on the hoops was painted black (the piece that attaches the roll hoops to the rack) The rest of it rack being chrome is very sharp!

I guess my roll bars will be black, as I didn't order a chrome pack. I probably need to black powder coat mine. I do hope my exhausts are coming in black.

I have just noticed that the MMC themselves are marketing the leather cowl strap as a bonnet strap !!
