Do you need or want a hood? Are you looking for stock or aftermarket?

G35 sedan w/ too much money in mods
Not many options for aftermarket sedan hoods, I can't even think of a specific one ATM.

Sorry......

I came from the honda scene where everything was interchangeable so I didn't know guys.

And yeah I was looking for aftermarket if that's possible..

Why do you need a new hood ? You do realize ours is aluminum ?

I had my car parked in the garage and my dad was carrying weight sets out of the house, a 25lb dumbbell slipped out of his hand, rolled off the handrail, onto and off the shoe rack onto my hood.

There's a bigass dent and a couple of smaller dents and deep scratches. He's going to fix it but it'd be easy to get a new hood and I was willing to throw in if it was aftermarket

There are aftermarket sedan hood options, at least for the 03-04... I would assume there has to be some for the 05-06 as well. SDGenius has the Strafe hood I believe, which is carbon fiber.

I did, spent about an hour in there looking at some handy threads too. My eyes prolly slip past a coupe and sedan comparison.. Lol if there is one in there

So far thanks to everyone that replied, I just ordered an 05-06 4d vis carbon fiber hood off of eBay. Should be here in a week or 2
