he said that they have some in chicago right now. i gave him my phone # and the guy from chicago is suppose to call me!

woohoo

 

Man I can't wait to see a pic of it. You going to paint it?

 

I'm Jealous!! Congrats!!

 

how many in chicago and how much???

 

mmm, If this is true. Id like to get ahold of one to make a mold out of. Then no need to worry abot em comeeing over from Japan.

 

wewt

 

fugging sweet , is it gonna be a cf one of a fiberglass one, and if it is cf will you keep it black or paint it.

 

Jealousy abounds!!!! :hail: How much are you getting it for?!

 

I can't wait to see it if this isn't one of your usual heylookatme posts

 

Ya...I am interested in the ducted cf hood also.
Please let us know if there are any more available and at
what price!

Thanks,
Tommy

 

HOW many? HOW much? [Crosses fingers for a whole bunch that are reasonably priced ]

 

I can't wait to see the pics.

 

I thought ASCD was going to design that hood for us? Perhapes if there is THIS much interest in it...we should get as many people as we can...to prepurchase the hood from them...that way, they actually have an incentive to build them....

 

My bad, I meant to post this under the post about the guy getting the Jap hood from Chicago....if Mods could change it or just leave it as is...sorry. But I do think that, that hood would make a camaro look so much more agressive.

 

well if ASCD makes them it's probably going to be different, and not be carbon fibre they'll probably do a fibreglass.

i ran into some cash so i figure if i can get that jap hood shipped to my house for under 1500US i'll be the only one in north america

 

LoL! Ditto. What's that smell?!?

 

looks like he is calling you out on this one easy.

when it comes in give me a call and i will help you install it.

 

I hope you took some measurements.........it may not clear your bi-turbo setup

No ****, I can't wait to see it if he's telling the truth. Those hoods are very cool looking.

 

Scott, I don't think you can polish CF

 

do you have any contact info for the guy in chicago??

and i believe rex said he was producing the hood in both fiberglass and carbon fiber

 

that hood is a great looking hood. u gotta get it , its deffy worth the extra money to have one of the few in the states, and then what you do is call a mag and see if they want to have it in their mag , and then get some publicity out there.

 

you'll be far from the only one however one of the few who paid the high price.



sounds good though, it's a great looking hood.

 

Are these the carbon fibre ones everyone is always talking about? If it is, how expensive is that gonna be? $1000+?

Wish I had $1000 to spend on a hood (I know that sounds like I'm bashing, but I'm not ) but I don't even have $100 to my name, lol

Good luck finding them, and post pics when you get them!!

 

easySPEEDcamaro from what i have seen seams to be credible.

P.S. Please dont prove me wrong.

 

ahahah don't mind all those guys from toronto

they are all my bitches, that's all

they all mean it in good fun.

 

so did you get the hood? if not what is going on with it? i would like to see pics if you get it. sounds cool i have seen the other pics but i want to see pics of it in the good old USA!

 

well the guy (gotou) from japan e-mailed me back and asked me for my phone number and told me the guy in chicago would call me ....

i'm expecting the phone call still...

i e-mailed him back and asked him for the guy's number so i can call him up myself.

 

I'm glad you realise that. Some times I think the other guys don't. If you really are getting this hood it's gonna be very cool. I want a CF stock looking flat hood but I can't justify the cost.

 

I'll save my applause and praise till I see it on your car.

 

ahahah devian you should be one of the people who know i'm getting it... seeing as how you've seen my cashflow lately

 

Maybe you should use the cashflow to actually make your car faster, before making it look faster.
Either way, if you get one of those hoods, it'll be sweet. Don't paint it. Leave it the CF with your blue.

 

Yeah, have you put any SLP parts on it yet other than the windshield sticker and the badges by the side markers?

 

please, if you get the hood, paint it.
Everyone knows how much ricers are bashed because they leave their carbon fiber hoods unpainted (Or make their non carbon fiber hoods LOOK like carbon fiber by painting them black).
Maybe theres some way you could TINT the carbon fiber so that it matches your car but from up close you can see that its carbon fiber.....

 

Edited. Ya got a problem, PM me.

 

i'm sorry, but personally i like the way carbon fibre looks. how can u not like this look:

 

this is for the moron.

 

Nice looking hood, too bad it wasn't more readily available or else I may have something different on the Z28. What is that hood going for if you don't mind me asking?

 

Wow, that's not going to be a big hit.

I don't see how he was being a "moron", as he only asked a simple question in a civil, non-offensive manner.

You have to admit, SLP badges on a car with NO SLP stuff was pretty ryce. I don't see how you could argue that.

 

Oh, and a nice IBTL on this abortion of a post.


PS - Have you ever heard the expression "don't count your chickens before they hatch"? Perhaps you can figure out that logic on your own.

 

excuse me, what he said was totally off topic.

we are talking about a hood... he goes and starts talking about slp badges. and he is a moderator.

and this is about the 6th time he's done this, to the point where i don't give a **** anymore.

keep on track, you go off track and start irritating me, you're going to get it from me. simple as that.

and unlike other people... i have a temper that i will display because this isn't a popularity contest for me. i could give a rat's *** what people think

 

You're right, I did get a little off topic. But I'm not one to harp on people for staying strictly on topic. If a post turns into personal things that having nothing to do with cars, then I will step in and tell people to keep it on topic. If someone posts and the subject changes slightly but its still about their car or roughly related (in this case, someone said that you should make your car go fast before making it look fast), then I have no problem with that. You didn't snap off on him for saying you should make it go fast first, so like I said.. if you have a problem, take it to PMs. Thank you.

 

What does that mean?!?! Don't hold out on us! :hail:

 

Yeah, the hood does look good unpainted, but I still think that it would look BETTER if it were painted or at least had a blue tint to it....thats just my opinion though, good luck with the hood :-)

 

So what this "japanese ducted hood" look like????

None of the pics in the thread look like anything special.[besided the carbon one]

 

1. Don't paint the hood if you're actually getting one.

2. I'd be willing to bet that the SLP runners won't make your car faster.

3. Cash flow? Is selling copyrighted photos on Ebay that lucrative, lol?

4. That blue Z28 is awesome.

 

Don't care for it, the Big Block hood is much better! :rockon:

 

I dunno if I like the big block hood THAT much better than this one, but i do agree that there are other hoods that fit the car better, IMO.
I think that this hood would look awsome on a fourth gen...

There was actually a Mechem trans am (LS1) at the World of Wheels in Boston this year that had a hood similar to this one, it looked awsome.....
But then again i've only seen this hood from this one angle, any other pics of it?

 

That carbon fiber hood IS the ducted hood. There's no stock-style CF hood currently being manufactured as far as I know.

 

i'm out of posters

selling new stuff

this week, i made ... actually won't even say you'll shoot me lol

 

Whatcha selling? If anything it'll give me a good laugh
