Hey Guys, I'm trying to find out if there would be any interest in a VIS hood group deal for the 2000-2003 Maximas. I can get OEM or Invader Type 6, but I would probably need 5 buyers. Post up if you're interested!

Steve

 

how about an invader for us fourth gens?

 

How much for the invader??

 

hey steve id be interested depending on price.

 

I tried to see if anybody was interested in the Invader a couple months ago but no takers, so if you can get this going I'm down for one of those if the price is right.

 

interested.... depending on price and maybe VIS could do the installation because im local

 

interested depended on price too

 

And I make 5.... prices?

EDIT: actually, I have 2 questions. The whole point of a CF hood is the weight reduction. So how much does the VIS OEM style hood weigh? What does the stock hood weigh too?

 

must fight the urge...just bought a house....


ok how much are we talkin about?

 

HOW MUCH? HOW MUCH? HOW MUCH? HOW MUCH? HOW MUCH?

 

Don't quote me yet, but for OEM we'll be looking around $450 to your door. Invader might be a bit more...

 

If you can do the OEM style for $450, consider it a done deal. I'll definitely order one fo that price.... maybe you can ship it with my Stillen FSTB

 

It would be $450 shipped on OEM style and $500 shipped for the Invader Type 6. Are there 5 buyers out there?

 

Damn, didn't expect this so fast. Any chance of holding off till the 15th? (Need to bring down my credit card balance before I can charge this)

Few questions too before I commit. I'm doing this for the weight reduction, so what does it weigh (OEM style)?

 

is this only for 5th gens or can us 4th gens get in to? also do you have any pics of the invader type 6 hood?

 

No, unfortunately VIS no longer makes hoods for us 4th genners. The invader Type 6 hood looks just like this:



But obviously for a maxima.

 

wasn't there some people who have had fitment problems with cf hoods? has this been resolved yet with the new hoods?

 

VIS is the name in CF hoods and next to never has fitment problems.

 

i might be very interested in this group deal. how long will this last?

 

Just as a disclaimer, CF hoods almost never fit exactly as the stock one did. Just the way the process is for baking them, that shrinks them slightly, and sometimes they dont align as perfect as the stock ones do........just my .02 into this. I still encourage you guys to get them !

 

I want one of these. too bad they dont make them anymore for us 4 geners

 

Yo Steve,

You know us here in the 808 state are going to be asking what is shipping going to cost? I'd be very interested if shipping won't be too bad. BTW got the lip

Zato

 

I'll check on shipping to the 808 on Tuesday when I'm back in the office. Glad to hear you got the lip Zato.

 

so what is the weight dif between these and the stock??

 

500 is a lot for a gd, I hate to say this but I've seen em cheaper on ebay, the seller was vis too.. That blows too btw that it doesn't fit exactly..Stupid Nissan.. :P

 

I'll check on that tomorrow also.

 

how long will this run for?

 

Hey how much to ship the OEM style to H1A 2W8 MTL - Canada.

Thank you.

AA

 

Steve, yes please.
A number of us are interested in the weight diff.
Also do you need hood pins or will the stock latch work?
Can you paint them?
Thanks
Mike

 

Lets see if I can help out some. The weight difference is around 20 pounds stock vs CF hoods. The latch will hold for a short period of time but eventually the hood will fly up on you considering the latch is connected to fiberglass vs metal on the stock hood. They can also be painted...I believe the most recent painted CF hood was Shadow.

 

Thanks Blu.. So is there enough interest for 5 hoods at the price I listed?

 

Lol no one ever pays attention to me :\ hehe

 

how much would it run for pick up? no shipping

also, does anybody have LONG term experience w/ VIS' hoods, my friend is tellin me theyre known for turning yellow...
i really want this hood, but my car sits in the sun for 9 months a year so i cant have it changing colors...as im sure nobody else wants it to deform either
