Hey guys
I spoke to a guy at one of the places that makes CF hoods for the gs. etc... HE told me if I get ten or so people to buy a 1st gen ls400 hood he will make one ! All he needs is someone to give him a perfect hood in southern california. I am partners with an audio shop and my cost will be around 500 bucks. If your interested post here or pm me. and ill know if I should advance on this deal. Of course Ill let you guys know the manafacturer if you choose to go along. C'mon its not that hard to guess they make cf hoods for the newer gs's .
Thanks,
Nomi

For <500 I would be interested.

retrodrive

So basically it is not avaliable. I could get you the same deal 1/2 a year ago but there are simply not enough people who want the hood.

darn it..



oh well it was worth a shot.

Man, I would like to have one but carbon fiber to me don't look hot on a white car.

That is why you want to paint it.

Then what is the point of having carbon fiber hood? Not like my car is a race car or anything and every pound counts. Plus the stereo stuff don't help the weight either.

Guys lets get a list going of how many ppl are interested in the hood. (BTW does it have any vents?)
Im sure we'll be able to get 10.

Potential buyers:

1. LeXuSrAcIn
2. xmystikx
3.nk1983

Thats more like it



that would make my year if we made it!

i think carbon fiber would look fine on a white car personally. ANd we can request vents im sure.

cmon guys dish out the cash lets do this!

***Update***

If we get 15 ( I know its a long shot)
the price will be more like 400 bucks...thats a killer deal guys!

retrodrive

Just saying that you want it does not mean you are one of 10 people who are going to pay. You better have $$$ ready for this.

LeXuSrAcIn

True we need to aim for like 30 ppl because ppl ALWAYS back outta deals. I think 400 is a killer price for a CF hood.... but I want one with a nice clean looking vent!!! Ill try to find a pic of the one I want. In the meantime lets keep adding on to the list. Oh, IF YOU DONT HAVE THE MONETARY RESOURCES PLEASE DONT ASK THAT YOUR NAME BE ADDED!!!!!!

Curiously, what is the weight savings?

LeXuSrAcIn

How about everyone post pics of the type of vent they want and we'll have a vote and decide?

LeXuSrAcIn

Id say the saving is about 50ish. I dont care much for the weight but I LOVEEEEEE carbon fiber hoods. They look SOOOOOO clean.
