Ok, guys....

It looks like we're pretty close. I think we have about 8-10 people. I'm going to contact fiber images and tell them what's up. For all of you that are serious and can send the money, send it to me in either a cashier's check or money order. I will then combine all of the monies into one large cashier's check that I will send to the company. I'm pretty hell bent on having these hoods made so, let's keep this thread alive so that more people will buy in. Here's my address:

David Cohen
17423 Courtney Pine Cir.
Spring, TX 77379

Please include your name, address, telephone numbers and email addresses. I will keep everybody posted on the status of the hoods. I will also notify all of you when I have collected all the money and have sent it to fiber images. Oh, and don't worry, if for some odd reason a bunch of people pull out and the deal falls through, I will return everybody's money. Just drop me an email when you send out your $225.

Thanks,
David C.

I'm gonna have to call fiber images to find out what the difference is. If you send $225 now, I'll put you down for a hood. I'll call fiber images before I send the money and ask how much a red carbon fiber hood will cost and I'll let you know. If you want to have it done, then I'll just tell them to include your hood in the order.

Thanks,
David C.

guys come on, you guys keep asking about colors and stuff.. if you want some blue.. or red or what ever.. thats where you go to a paint shop and ask them to tint the clear with what ever color u want.. then have them coat the hood with clear with what ever color tint u want

I don't know you, but I will personally find you and start beating you until you like it...

which means that you will get so used to being beaten, that you will convince yourself that it's fun just cause you know that it will keep happenning...

needless to say, you can do what you want, but I am a big guy, and you don't want me to kick your ashe.

Colors...

Yes, there is a way to get a blue weave added into the carbon fiber. They use a carbon/ kevlar compound that has a blue, red or yellow color. They may offer more colors but these are the only ones I'm sure about. If you want this, it will cost more money. There is somebody else who wanted a red weave. I'm going to check the price on the upgrade and let you guys know. If you want you can send the $225 and then pay the difference upon completion. Here's my address:

I will be donating my hood so that they can manufacture these. Needless to say, I will be without a car for a couple weeks.

By latest count, I have eleven people who are sending their money. Including yourself, but excluding myself. So we're good to go. Go ahead and send your money to my address.

Thanks,

thanks for taking one for the team

got room for one more? my hood looks like ****...i need a new one anyways

what do you expect shipping to be? and you say 450 for the hood, is that for sure, or will they unexpectaldy up the price to something else? if it's 450+ shipping SOLID, expect me to jump on it.

oh also, do these hoods ocme with a clear coat? or do i need to do anything to make the hood look nice before I put it on my car?
