i dont know if anyone as seen this yet.. but i was browser thur ebay and i found a c63 carbon fiber hood. it saids that its fits regular c-classes.. i think its a little too much.. any ideas on this.http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Merce...spagenameZWDVW

 

I've been tempted by it. As you said very expensive but that is because it is new and the only one available. Give it a year and it should drop. I was also thinking of having the sides painted to match my car leaving only the center raised section CF.

 

nice idea!!!!!

 

is there anyone who tried to fit hood like this,in his car?

 

I have.2 things,first,that hood is coming from Hong Kong - take it for what its worth.#2) I have a CF hood for my C43.The fitment took a while to get right,but the heavy a$$ hinges that support our hood causes problems when you go to close it.You have to be REAL careful when you close it or you can snap it.These hoods do not like the heat of the summer sun and are prone to crack if not supported properly or closed properly.Good luck whatever route you take.

 

thank you very much for telling your experience about this type of hood.
from the things you have told me ,i decided not to buy this type of hood,because it is very sensitive and could be break any time.....
thanks a lot

 

thats odd.. a good carbon fiber anything for that matter should be stronger that some sheetmetal..and for that price i hope its a vacuum technology type carbon fiber hood. look at www.vorsteiner.com hoods @ over 1k a piece, i doubt prices will fall for this hood, but then of course i highly doubt this hood has the same technology as vorsteiner.

 

You're welcome.

 

we make this hood =)

i would prefer metal hood(c63 style) for strength and painting in car's color
i think that would be great choice
i would buy right now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
