It looks fantastic! The hood and the brakes !

I am glad to see that overall everyone does like the hood. To answer a few questions on here.

1. The hood has the same sides and angles as stock. It is just two inches taller.

2. We use marine grade gel coat to protect the hood. You can wash, and wax it just like your car.

3. We are not planning on making a stock style hood. We are going to do a different design after SEMA though.

4. The hood weights about 15 lbs. That is half as much a s stock.

We are in the process of making the trunk, wing, radiator cover, and v6/v8 engine covers. I will keep you all posted.

A couple head on shots, both from up high sort of and then on level with the headlights, and then a few more side profile shots/angled profile shots from varying distances lol.

Thanks man, I really want to "take it all in" before I decide on a purchase or not...

You got it. Yea i understand. I have a couple good head on shots from headlight level and a good one from above showing the contrast in color of the carbon fiber and the cyber gray. The side profile shots give the best idea of the height of the cowl. I will upload them tonight since they're on my comp at home, unless I get time on my lunch break to stop by the house. Keep checking back though, they'll be up today for sure.

I'll definitely mention it to them

Number 3 · 09-28-2009, 06:31 PM

Could you post up a few shots of the hood open so we can see the underside of the hood and the attached hardware?

That is a pretty good price for a full carbon hood.
