NEW HOOD IS HERE...OLD ONE HAS TO GO !

well i have had my cf trunk and wing combo for sale but no takers yet

my new hood just came in Friday so the old one has to go to a new home . i live in El Paso , Tx so i'm sure that local pickup is out of the question for most people but , by some strange chance , you are passing through or will be in the area , i will sell these items for dirt cheap .

if you are interested in the hood or trunk and wing combo , pm me
i would like to sell these items in the U.S. because the shipping would be too much to ship out of the country .

this is the new hood in my garage.....waiting to be installed

Wow, that was fast... loving the new design. Are you gonna paint the new hood?

GL with the sale of your old hood... too bad shipping is insane across the border.

that's exactly what i said....it shipped on monday and was here by friday

i am still trying to find a cheaper way to ship the hood to you

i think i am going to keep the similar paint scheme as the old one . the new trunk will get a little change . i am going to just keep the top of the new trunk in carbon but paint the rear part .

Are you going to install the new hood yourself?

That's cool.

The reason I ask is because I want to install my CF hood and I've been wondering how to remove the attachments on the hood for the hydraulic openers.

Do you have experience with this?

Hi mate love, the hood, it is soo aggressive! With your white car have you thought about painting bonnet white and leaving the area of the vents/slats in exposed CF? I reckon that would look loco ****! I did it on my car and with Dads vented hood. Looks great and would be even insaner on white car.

i thought about that but i also have Keith's trunk and i wanted to keep the top of the new trunk in carbon and color match the rear section . i think it would look funny if i didn't keep the same look on the hood as i have now .

........but i do agree that it would look insane with just the vents exposed

Now that's a vented hood!
Cant wait to see it on your car, its gonna look super aggressive.
Are you gonna leave it carbon or paint it white?

I think it would look pretty cool if you painted the whole hood and just left the vents bare carbon.

I like it! I was thinking maybe not adding the white strips across the vents. Kinda like boxing out the vents.
