Cheaper and more safer .
that would defeat the purpose of carbon fiber hood... the point of getting one is weight reduction..its 70% lighter

laminate on top of the hood would achieve no weight reduction and make car look like like da poops

a car.
I have a carbon fiber hood, not this one specifically though. It is vented and I can see hot air coming from the vents quite often. I can also tell you it does not weigh much less than the stock hood which is very light to begin with.

Well, I apparently got scammed here. Been 3.5 weeks past the promised ship date and 3 weeks since MHP has responded to my emails. Luckily I paid with credit card so it's all coming back the hard way if I don't get either a tracking number or a refund by Friday.

Man that SUCKS! sorry! this forum should have a technical committee made of rotating user, no vendors that approves who can advertise.
I believe that MBWorld bears legal responsibility on their advertisement.
I bet there are a lot of layers that can answer this.


Sorry mate.

Didn't even know they were still in business but if they made it this long with all the crap they put out in the beginning you'd think they had to have cleaned up their act a bit...

If it means anything, the Copyright info at the bottom of the page is a wee-bit old. And a bunch of the pages don't seem to work anymore.

I won't either. Andy had a horrible way of treating people and then lying about it after...and I'm speaking of my own personal experience with him. And that doesn't even begin to touch his presence on this forum!

Disputed the credit-card charge of $3,490.00. Since the promised shipping day was 9/22 and MHP (modernhorsepower.com, "Modern Horsepower LLC") has refused all contact since 9/27, it's hard to believe this won't be an open-and-shut case.

Should be an super easy. In this day and age I dispute charges about once a month with as much online shopping I do.
They will reach out to the company asking for proof of delivery which they can not provide and then refund the money to you.
Keep us updated.

Will try and post some pics of it when i get a chance.
how can I find a vinted carbon fiber hood for 2012 E 63 AMG thanks in advance for your help
