Puma Style Bonnet for Land Rover Defender - Reinforced (Double Skin) GRP Fibreglass
See optional extras below
WARNING: As this bonnet is made of much lighter GRP (Fibreglass), it is not as strong as the steel Land Rover bonnets. Therefore we advise that during use, please be careful when you shut the bonnet and do not slam it shut.
PLEASE NOTE: This Defender Puma bonnet has a black gel coat (RAL 9005) as standard however will require suitable preparation - some filling, priming and final painting. When painting do not bake at too high a temperature as the bonnet is made of GRP. We do not recommend fitting as is.
- This aftermarket Land Rover Defender Puma Bonnet is made of Glass Reinforced Plastic with steel fixtures for the original fasteners; it is durable and flexible for heavy use.
- It is light-weight compared to original aluminium Defender bonnets - the net weight is 10kg.
- Noise transmission is much less than the aluminium versions. It will reduce the engine noise.
REVIEW
"I was very pleased to receive my Puma style reinforced plastic bonnet which arrived yesterday. Seldom have I seen such a well wrapped and protected purchase. To my delight the bonnet was in perfect condition. I had anticipated that time would be required to fill minor holes and finish off the surfaces for paint preparation . However, there is no work at all to be done on the top or underside and, since my final colour will be Land Rover Java Black, I am tempted to fit the bonnet without painting. The finish is just so good that I would require an expert to tell that the part had not been fully painted. I discussed the need to paint with Ferzan in your technical department who was extremely helpful, patient and a fine ambassador for your company. In short, this was an excellent purchase of a reasonably priced, high quality component. Many thanks for your kind help and super service. Kind regards. Alan Crossley."
Important note for Defender 200TDi owners
This coolant tank pointed to above, needs to be moved away from the side of the wings so that it does not impede the movement of the bonnet. We recommend that you use a U-Shaped bracket shown in the photo above to space out the coolant tank so the bonnet can correctly shut.

Bonnet Stay Kit
If you are upgrading your bonnet from a 200TDi/300TDi with the scissor bonnet stay to a GRP PUMA bonnet you will need this stay kit as your old bonnet stay will not be compatible. TD5 bonnets may also have this PUMA stay kit, so just check what you have already.

18 to 300 watts and up to 24,000 lumens LEDs. High intensity Epistar LEDs are energy-efficient compared to filament or halogen lights and CREE LEDs are even more powerful and energy-efficient than Epistar LEDs. If you're running additional lights off a switched off engine, then high-efficiency HID and LED lights will drain the battery slower than traditional filament or halogen lights.
About Masai
Automotive Engineering since 1953
Masai is a retail brand name of our design and manufacturing company Omega Automotive Ltd, owned and managed by the Kuman family based in England and Turkey. Since 1953, a passion for automotive engineering has flowed through 3 generations of the Kuman family.
We are specialists in Windows, Metal Fabrication, Lighting, Vehicle Instrumentation, Suspension, Rubber and Cooling. We also manufacture and supply to many automotive companies around the world. See all our products on our other website at Masai.co. Or stay on this website and see them here.
We have facilities in two of Europe’s long established centres of automotive engineering - Istanbul, Turkey - manufacturing, and The Midlands UK (Lichfield) - our Northern European distribution centre.
There's been a growing demand over recent years for vehicle lighting which consumes less power and is far longer lasting than conventional filament bulbs.
LED lights very much meet that need, and for the same power consumption will produce greater luminosity and a whiter light. Recognising that, we have sourced high-quality LED and HID vehicle lights from around the world and will be bringing further ranges over the coming years.
High intensity Epistar LEDs are energy-efficient compared to filament or halogen lights and CREE LEDs are even more powerful and energy-efficient than Epistar LEDs.
If you’re running additional lights off a switched off engine, then high-efficiency HID and LED lights will drain the battery slower than traditional filament or halogen lights.
The circular light you see below is a 4-inch LED work light producing 2,150 lumens at 27 watts with 9 Epistar LEDs. It can be fitted to a wide range of commercial and domestic vehicles.
