While organizing the last GB for VIS hoods a few people inquired about the possibility of a 4th gen CF hood. The hood that was used for the mold had been damaged thus being useless. VIS doesn't think there was much interest for these so they never replaced it and have since been concentrating on newer model cars that come out. I told them that there was interest (so please don't let them prove me wrong).

They are currently looking for a 95-99 hood in their general vicinity and would let me know within the next few days if one was found or not. They presented me with another option though:

In order to get a hood made they need an original hood for molding purposes. If I can get a group of people together who are seriously interested in getting a CF hood for the 4th gen Maxima and are willing to provide a deposit then they will make a hood.

The deposit will be based on the number of people interested. For example if an OEM 95-99 Maxima hood from the dealership costs $300 (Just a guesstimate since I haven't checked) and we have 10 people then the deposit would be $30 split evenly. If there is less interest then the deposit would be higher. The higher the interest and participants = the less each individual gives for a deposit. The deposit would then be applied towards the original purchase.

Turnaround time is a minimum of 6-8 weeks, but I think realistically you would be looking at 3 months. Price of the OEM CF hood would be @ $330-$350 minus deposit.

Please discuss and provide some feedback. Comments and suggestions welcome.
