Woody, you can edit the original post and add a poll question at the bottom. Depending on price, I would probably get a FG hoodWOODY wrote:Garm wrote:In. What happened to the "interest list"?
I don't care about trim, prop rod, or latches, as long as the fitment is good and the hinges will work properly.

Re: Fiberglass and Carbonfiber hoods for our cars!
I'd be interested.
Do you still need a hood to use? Will it be damaged?
PM me, as I've got a couple of hoods that could work for this, and I might be willing to sacrifice a hood as well, if that's needed.

Re: Fiberglass and Carbonfiber hoods for our cars!
I'm curious how much one of these would be? I might be interested, especially if I can cleverly hide the fact that its composite by running the original mounting and latching hardware. I could really stand to loose a few pounds off the front of the car.

Re: Fiberglass and Carbonfiber hoods for our cars!
What happened with the hoods? About how many layer of carbon fiber will you be using? How many grams will each layer of carbon fiber be?
