Stock Camaro Fiberglass Hood! 30lbs only!

Hi folks,
I want to start a group buy for an awesome fiberglass Camaro hood. It uses the the stock hinges and hood latch. Better yet, it only weighs about 30lbs compared to 60+ pounds for stock!
Purchase price is $375 plus shipping. Shipping should be less than $150.
This is a very high quality hood! Here are some pics of it.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Let's make a list of everyone that needs a lite, quality hood!

Re: Stock Camaro Fiberglass Hood! 30lbs only!

Is the "Warning Hoods pins required. Intended for show and off-road use only." sticker just to cover their a**, or is it really not a good idea to drive around everyday with it connected by just the hinges and latch?

Re: Stock Camaro Fiberglass Hood! 30lbs only!

Over 500 is kinda steep, but are hood pins required? Are you running this hood now? Interested.

Re: Stock Camaro Fiberglass Hood! 30lbs only!

Is there ANY way I can get my hands on one of these hoods now? Did anyone start making them or so?
This whole lightweight hoods for Iroc´s is sooo strange. There are tons of FUGLY crap hoods available, but NO lightweight stock hood designs out there. I mean they make real CF hoods for Hondas and Toyotas, but for Camaros, NO unless you have any of the other generations, then you have tons of options.

Re: Stock Camaro Fiberglass Hood! 30lbs only!

^ Nobody is making them. Hawks offered too if 10 people committed. Never happened. I never could get MR IROC-Z to tell me who made his, but whoever it was is not doing it anymore.

Re: Stock Camaro Fiberglass Hood! 30lbs only!

I´m in.
Would love to get one that would weigh in at around 20 Ibs with maybe carbon fibre top layer or so. But a good quality fibre glass one would do the job for me also.
