Do you guys know if a company makes clear or see-thru colored hoods? I have a pic below that I got off of this site. I talked to the guy and he told me that it was a photo shop thing. So it's not real. But I think it would be cool to get a see-thru colored hood that matched the tone of the paint of the body like in the pic below. I plan on getting a 4th gen corvette several years down the road and I will put in a new engine, etc. and that would be an awesome way to show off my engine and engine bay.

If I got an OEM hood for my car, could I take it somwhere to be used to make a mold and get them to make me a see-thru hood? What material would this thing need to be made out of? I think it would be neat if all of the body parts were made like that, the front/rear bumpers, fenders, 1/4 panels, etc.



What do you think?
:lala:

 

Shouldn't be too hard. There have been a few people on this board who have made rear windows with plexiglass and a heat gun.

 

one word.. gay..

 

Unless your engine bay is the shizznit I wouldnt do it. How bout taking it a bit further and make it a see through cowl hood! That might be cool for a show car.

 

Heck, if you want everone to see your engine that bad just take the hood off!

 

why are there two identical threads with the same damn thing made by the same guy ?

 

cause this one was moved from somewhere else to hear and it hasn't dissapeared off of the other board yet.

i have seen lexan cowl hoods before...kinda ghetto if you ask me.

 

but then you can't go do dounts in the rain!
I kinda like it.
