I've been looking for a CF hood for awhile now and haven't found anything...on ebay or elsewhere. Some guy was selling one at an insane price (something like $150!) up in Seatle, but that was for pickup only or I would have been all over that.
If you find any info or links, please share the wealth.

150$!! I'll pay that any day!

I've found one on Ebay, he wanted 520$ +, and this is the best, 900$!!!!! For shipping to Sweden.

I've mailed my contact in US that I bought the CF interior and front lip from and asked if he has any, will keep you posted SilverBullet!

What do you have for brakes on the bullet? Original?

cf hood = $150
roundtrip redeye airfare to seattle = $200
pickup truck rental + lunch = $75
cf hood s/h = $100
Total = $525, still a good deal.

Thanks! I just have the stock brakes. I'm not trackin the car, so no real need for me to upgrade brakes. Plenty of things under the hood to blow money on that would do me better.

It's my understanding that the VIS (or any other manufacturer, for that matter) CF hoods are not actually CF, but CF applied on top of fiberglass. I question whether the weight is that much of an improvement over stock...
