Thoughts on Carbon Fiber Hood?
 
I have been debating for a good while now on whether I should get a hood or not. I already have a carbon fiber trunk, so I thought the hood would complete that. My hood is also getting worse it has a few chips in it and a few odd discolored paint spots. So I thought a carbon fiber ams style hood would be my best option

Up to your budget but you would have to vinyl the roof!

Would look nice on the G

Go ahead and pull the trigger

I think that hood looks good. Anyone know if these are plug and play or do you have to change the mounts/latch etc...?

I think that hood looks ghetto

Tanner4 03-01-2015 05:26 PM

On most that I've looked theres no need for anything new

Tanner4 03-01-2015 05:26 PM

Is it the design or the carbon fiber you think is ghetto?

If you're going the carbon fiber route, I honestly really like the autokits hood..

I ordered that exact hood one time and it took 2 months for these guys to tell me they couldn't even do carbon fiber. I was extremely disappointed in their service. I had already paid for it and everything. So I turned around and bought exhaust instead.

I don't think you are going to save much weight by changing it (alum hood), BUT, for the "second kind of cool" (as Nutinfancy calls it) factor, I think it will look great with the trunk. Then get the roof done.

Oh yeah, and that hood you posted, I'd say get it.

Tanner4 03-12-2015 06:11 PM

Sure am! I've only seen a few other big Packer fans here.

So you going to pull the trigger?
