THE MONKEY WAREHOUSE ADVANTAGE

  • 20 Years of Composite Heritage: Hand-crafted by experts with two decades of experience in the Australian automotive aero industry.
  • 100% Brisbane Made: Proudly manufactured at our Coopers Plains workshop. Thank you for supporting Australian manufacturing!
  • Hand Laid Structural Integrity: Unlike cheap chopper gun imports, our Hand Laid process ensures consistent panel thickness and a superior strength-to-weight ratio.
  • Durability: FRP is 100% rust-proof. As a "thermoset" material, it maintains its rigid shape under the Australian sun, resisting the warping common in plastic parts.
  • Serviceable Design: Engineered to be a "serviceable" part: if damaged, it can be professionally re-glassed rather than replaced.

INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS

This is a high-quality aftermarket FRP component. For a professional finish, the following workflow is required:

  • Pre-fitting: Always test-fit the scoop to your bonnet "dry" before any modification, sanding, or painting to check alignment.
  • Professional Adjustment: Minor sanding or heat application may be necessary to achieve a perfect flush fit with the bonnet's curvature. Drilling of the bonnet is required for secure mounting.
  • Preparation: Requires professional sanding and priming before painting to match your vehicle paint code.
  • Expert Fitment: We strongly recommend installation by a qualified body shop experienced in FRP products to ensure a professional finish.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Is this a functional scoop?
This is sold as a cosmetic louvre scoop. If functionality is required, the bonnet must be cut to allow airflow, which should be performed by a professional body shop.

What is the difference between Hand Laid and Chopper Gun?
Chopper guns spray random glass strands, leading to brittle sections. Our Hand Laid process manually layers glass mats, ensuring a better resin-to-glass ratio and significantly higher durability.

Does it come painted?
No. It arrives in a raw gel-coat finish. It requires standard preparation, priming, and painting by a professional to match your vehicle perfectly.

IMPORTANT: We strongly recommend installation by a qualified body shop experienced in FRP aero parts.
