2010-2015 CAMARO CARBON FIBER HOOD
2010-2015 CAMARO CARBON FIBER HOOD
https://www.southerncarparts.com/201...od-p-3442.html If you want to add a powerful, aggressive, custom modification look to your Chevrolet Camaro a Carbon Fiber hood is a great way to go. Carbon Fiber provides your Camaro with a number of benefits beyond its fantastic look, too. Carbon Fiber is often times used in aircraft and spacecraft technology b/c of its extreme light-weight yet high strength properties. CBD is an industry leader in top quality carbon fiber, too, so you know that you're getting the very best with one of their products. We started where the GM engineers left off. Simply put it is the hood that shows off the lines of the car. This cowl induction hood in 2 1/4" taller than stock at the back of the windshield. The latch is fully bonded and the hood is ready to install out of the box. We kept the OEM style inner for safety and use 6061 aluminum for our hinge points. The inner has an option of either black gel coat or carbon fiber. This hood retains your stock windshield wiper assembly. Carbon Fiber: Our 3K American Made Carbon Fiber Hood. This hood is manufactured with a special chemical formula which features an Ultra UV resistant clear gel coat. This hood is fully buffed and polished and has an excellent visual finish. The hood inner retains all of the factory reinforcements and retains air functionality and drain holes. These hoods include fully bonded aluminum hinge plates, which ensure a vibration free fitment. The inner is finished with a black gel coat, which can be left unpainted. Because of the size of this product and the packaging constraints involved in assuring that it arrives safely and in perfect condition, Shipping is a flat rate $200 for Freight to the Continental 48 States. For International shipping costs, please call us. You may see Carbon Fiber hoods listed elsewhere for less money and be curious about the price difference, but the answer is simple, they are constructed using substandard materials, often obtained from overseas. CBD's materials are 100% American made, including the finest Marine Grade Clear Gel Coat which resists "yellowing," ten times better than the competition! Because of the custom nature of CBD Carbon Fiber products, there is a 6-7 weeks turnaround for production time upon placing your order. Please allow for this delay before ordering. CBD: BUILDING THE SUPERIOR HOOD When purchasing a Carbon Fiber hood there are a lot of things to consider: fitment, materials, features, quality, and reputation. While there are other Carbon Fiber Hoods on the market, we'd like to take some time to explain what makes our product so superior, and why you'll find our hoods in more new car dealerships across the country. HIGH-QUALITY TOOLING Parts are only as good as the molds they are pulled or generated from. With greater pressure to turn out a wider array of products, quality is often overlooked in the tooling stage in order to maximize revenue. Unfortunately, poor tooling produces hoods which fit poorly and suffer from less-than-perfect surface quality. OEM "FUNCTIONAL" INNER LINING The factory engineered the inner "that way" for a reason? Incomplete or changed factory inners not only suffer from poor structural design but lack the critical crush designs which are so important. Our inners are computer-modeled to both provide functionality and increased stiffness. We retain stampings and supports from the factory into our designs. REAR ROLLED EDGES So what's a rolled edge, really? The definition of a rolled edge varies greatly. Some will just take the excess hood material and wrap it around the inner, which serves no purpose. Our rolled edges are rolled at 90 degrees for a full .25" and increase stiffness in the hood by up to 50%. Our generation "B" hoods incorporate a double rolled edge which increases stiffness by 100% and reduces weight by 20%. All of our edges are unpainted, real carbon fiber. Carbon by Design Carbon Fiber CHROME HOOD LATCH Without a quality Latch, what good is a hood? We took the time to fully engineer a factory-quality replacement latching system to guarantee a hood which can be opened over and over without missing a beat. Our latch assemblies are mandrel bent and TIG welded, deburred and then chrome-plated. It may seem like a lot of effort for a latch, but we are selling quality. Carbon Fiber Chrome Hood Latch WOVEN STAINLESS STEEL GRILLS 100% Stainless Grills! Our grills are Imported from Europe, made by the same manufacturer which builds the OEM grills for Ferrari and Bugatti. All of our hoods feature 304 woven stainless grills inside and out! Our 1.5mm by 1.5mm grills keep debris out and allow plenty of air in! Carbon Fiber Hoods TOP QUALITY CARBON SURFACE Our hoods are created with the finest carbon fiber! Too much resin will turn a hood yellow; not enough gel coat will make a hood print the carbon pattern and hand lay-ups are plagued with thousands of air bubbles. Our high and low-pressure processes allow for a wide array of product possibilities. Our clear gel coat is more difficult to apply and more expensive than conventional clear coats, but the difference is in the finish.
