W209 CLK Venter Carbon Fiber Hood
One-off custom carbon fiber hood painted iridium silver for w209 CLK. The hood will require modifications to the w209 in order for it to fit.

Here are before modification pics. Hood sits high in the front.



Here are after modification pics.








Colormatch is not guaranteed as many with silver cars will attest. Will require transplanting your oem hardware. Also it is highly recommended that you use hood pins with a carbon fiber hood. I am asking $450 plus shipping. All reasonable offers will be entertained. Thanks for looking.

The hood lock springs were removed. The lock on the radiator mount were shifted below the mount. The body shop also realigned the fenders to line up to the hood. A good body shop should be able to do the job.
