thats unreal japen .........wow....ok so really theres no chance of getting a iroc style fiber hood?

 

That Japan one only has the odd looking vented hood. No stock carbon hood.

 

search on user 1badbotie

 

that looks ugly in my opinion lol :x never liked carbon fiber hoods, especially on muscle cars

 

I'd love one if I could paint it to look stock! I'd want it just for weight savings.

 

So you want a carbon fiber look, with fiberglass shell or true carbon fiber? I noticed you said you want CF, but then said fiberglass. Getting an overlay is easy, but a true double sided carbon fiber hood will be hard and very expensive, but can be bought and done.

If I went CF, it would have to be double sided (Top hood layer and skeleton made completely from CF).

-Take care and GL on the search for one locally

P.S. Where you @ Kandied91Z...

 

Some pics of my new hood (modified):

 

Where did you buy that?

 

ok you got my attention, ive yet to find a glass iroc hood nevermind a c/f one, whered you get that????

 

Did a search, he got it here

So it came from a guy from Canada? The plot thickens LOL

 

Hmmmmmm, Canada, eh?

 

Hi Guys,
Yes, the hood comes from Canada. I purchased it from a local guy here in California. The owner ordered it new, but changed his mind. I am not sure if they even produce them anymore? I am just thankful to be removing the extra weight from the stock hood!

 

BTW, I have a secret CRUSH on your car. I read your other post where you are rebuilding the car. I didn't know that the car needed so much work. From the pics I saw a while back, the car looked amazing. I would have never thought it needed a full rebuild. I remember the original owner was asking a boat load for this car (about $50-60k if my memory serves me right).
Hopefully he lowered the price since it seems the engine was shot.

 

Thanks man! Funny you say that because, I remember your from MANY years ago. Always loved your cars stance and wheels!

Yes, he did. What I paid is 5-6 times less than what you saw(50-60) Its not that the car was bad, BUT the engine had a blown head gasket, piston damage, etc. The engine compartment had never been painted either so it was kinda rough. As far as the paint it was a good "low-end" paintjob. Now it's going to be show quality. I am reusing lots(SC, piping, brakes, seats, suspension, etc etc that he had)so it's not as bad as it seems. Mostly rewiring(Megasquirt, gauges, switches), new engine, and new paint. All the aftermarket body work and wheels are going back on just as they were, besides I think they look sweet!

 

I really want to know the company that made that hood. It's exactly what I have been looking for.
