Good Morning Guys,
I ask Carl Monday about the production and how quickly he can start shipping them. Here was his response:

Keith,

The hood is ready for opening the vents, however the temperature here is low, so we need to wait more time to make sure the hood is flat.

And some masters do not come back on time , because it is not easy to get the train tickets just after the holidays, too many people need to get the tickets to come back from their holidays.
They may be late a few days.

I will let you know the updates.

Best regards!

Carl Lan

I am pushing them all I can. Please understand.
THANK YOU!!

Hey Keith,

What's the status of my hood? I know we spoke briefly about painting
it, which I still want to do. All I have sent you is my deposit, I'll gladly
send you the rest. Can you send me a paypal invoice for the rest +
air freight.


Mike

Good Afternoon,
Here is the list as far as I can see concerning the air shipment preference. If you have decided that you don't want to pay the additional air thats fine also but nows the time to make that decision. PLEASE let me know asap and make your final payent which will include the air (+$310). If you need the final amount please send me a PM and we can square up.

Well good news is we have four for option 1 so far. Any and all can join in. They will ship them three or five at a time.

Option 1.
bhamg

petroC63
oetuning

Dodger63, You in or out?

Let me know if anyone else wants to take this option.
THANK YOU very much for understanding!!

Mike,
I got your payment (THANK YOU!) and I'll take the hood over to Sanford Paint and Body as soon as it gets here.

Does anyone else want to bring their hood in air? Please let me know asap.

Thank you,
Keith

PS: I have one hood that is not spoken for if someone wants it.

PM sent...I am out of the air-ship group as starting tomorrow I won't be around for about a month to be able to have it installed and therefore can't have it sent to the shop as planned.

I will have an update tomorrow. OEtuning doesn't need theirs air so if anyone else wants theirs air I have a spot for one. Its $310 extra but otherwise we are looking at April for the batch to arrive via sea freight. Please let me know if anyone wants to do air.

PetroC63 and Faresuae have paid for the air and waiting. These three should ship the end of this week.

Keith,

Is mine shipping regardless of a third person? If not, I'll pay extra
to get the hood shipped this week. I told Dave(Sanford Paint) that
the hood will arrive for painting at the end of this week or some time
next week.

Yours and PetroC63 are shipping tomorrow!! Almost here!!

PetroC63, as soon as yours arrives I'll take it to Dave. I dropped my car off this morning to get mine blended like the last one and let him know when your hood would be coming and he said he's ready. Only takes him a couple of days.

If anyone else wants theirs finished off with either additional block sanding and clear coat or some painting let me know.

Anyone else received theirs and have new pictures??

Keith, what is "block sanding?" And is a clear coat recommended for C/F? Will it help protect it from the elements? I live in a real hot area, so just wondering if clear coat would help protect against sun damage?

The hoods are clear coated and read to go. However, for the ultimate look and feel Dave will block sand (Get rid of the tiny pits and hills on the hood and make it look wet all the time. Then clear coat it and that will help protect it from the elements. I highly suggest it for the best finish and look.
