I personally am a fan of carbon fiber hoods, just not this one.. just been seeing alot of carbon fiber threads on here figured i'd throw this in here if someone already hasn't beat me to it

 

I like carbon fiber....Here's my partial dash piece. I might do another as a full piece, but I like the partial better than I thought I would.

 

that is sick, i want to have my gauge bezel in my 92 be carbon fiber.. but idk where to go around here.. and i can never find any place that sells it.. if anyone finds it.. or knows where i can have it done please let me know lol..

or for that matter any other carbon fiber things..

i like that hood that's there, but i like the hood taht i saw in another thread.. doubt that will ever be for sale anytime soon tho

 

I've thought about just doing my stock hood, but I'm really liking the RA1 (93-97) hood lately.

 

if i have absloutly no experience in this.. do you think if i tried it'd turn out good?.. and what would i need to do just my gauge bezel

 

Is is just me or does that look like photoshop? Its hard to tell but the car looks like it is outside but the hood looks like its inside. Notice 3/4 of an inch or so overhang into the the headlight buckets.

 

yea i noticed it too, idk lol, i don't have the money to buy it.. and if i had that amount of money.. i'd buy a set of black racing seats from madracingconcepts and some black 4th gen seats to match..

 

Ha ha yeah, I think our $ would be better spent elsewhere. Atleast for one from a different company. I'm no physics major but it also seems that you might have a hard time using your windshield wipers if the hood is on top of them. I call bs. They may have a legitimate product, but they need to post a real pic and not blow sunshine up you know where.

 

lol, yea i agree they need a actual pic of their product.. oh well.. only place i'm really a fan of carbon fiber is on some interior pieces.. and that one japanese "heat extracter" (?name?) hood..

 

For anyone interested in a OEM iroc style Carbon Fiber hood I have one for sale. Many compliments received on the quality and fit & finish of the hood.
Bolts up to all existing factory hinges. Weighs 24lbs vs. the 60lbs of the stock hood. If your interested get back to me at my email ythreekay@sympatico.ca or bordeauxwelding@bellnet.ca. I will send you some pics.

$750.00 plus shipping

 

If i get my GED quick enough and get my savings bond money.. i'll buy that unless someone beats me to it.. i think it'd go nice with my black camaro

I'd like to see some pics

I did a similar treatment to my console shift plate, radio trim and the accessory panel just above it (left the ends regular black). Hadn't thought of doing the actual gauge panel, I think I've got some CF left over.......

 

If they made a regular flat hood with no louvers or blisters or anything in carbon fibre, I would buy one and paint it to match my car

 

I might do my console top & radio/AC controls too. Duno. I'd hafta go buy more material. Well, I have enough for the radio/AC plate left over....

I've toyed with the idea of doing my GTA hood, but that is a MUCH bigger & involved project than interior pieces.

 

can someone tell me what i'd need to make my own?..

 

lol someone needs to slap you silly... that's the last thing you should be worrying about buying if you can type that sentence and mean it!

 

You can buy "carbon fiber tape" at autozone, i think it is like $9 for a 5'x8" roll...

O yeah, and a good enough diploma does not get you many places in life...i really recommend going after secondary education, im not trying to tell you what to do, and i do not know your situation, but do yourself a favor and at least do some juco.

 

I have ALOT of people tell me to get the high school diploma, but no one really knows my story, and i'm sure half of you wouldn't care to hear it, long story short, my high school lost 2 full years worth credits when i trasnfered.. i tried over and over and my mom went back and forth with the school board, in the end they said i'd have have to just go redo it cause they "don't have proof" i've completed it.. even tho my teachers all agreed i'd passed, but they didn't have the actual grades.. i ended up trying my had this year.. security didn't like me after we butted heads over some stuff.. i ended up leaving.. i do have plans for what i'm doing.. i've contacted UTI and am going to enroll in there after i get my GED and i qualify for a financial aid so there's help there.. and my mom lives about 30 min's fron the NC campus.. so when i fly up there i'm going to tour the campus and get going on that..

 

...UTI is great, one of my friends goes there and he tells me about all of the stuff he gets to do. Im kinda jealous, he is rebuilding a 69 camaro in his class...good luck with all of your plans

 

thanks for the good luck thing..

i've heard alot of good stuff.. and i mean getting an education and after you complete it getting 1k worth snap on tools.. and while being there getting (from what the lady told me) 45-50% off of parts sounds good to me.. i really have a thing for cars.. one of the very few things that can hold my attention for more then 5 mins..
