One of my friends just got carbon fiber vinyl from <A HREF="http://www.stickercity.com" TARGET=_blank>www.stickercity.com</A> and he put it on his hood his gas tank cover and a couple other places... Looks real tight and looks real carbon fiber... Just a thought to do instead of spending 450 bucks on a new hood...

Hello,<BR> Actually the reason for the carbon hood isnt just for the pretty look. It also weighs alot less. I am now waiting on the first hoods to be produced. I am hoping by the second week of November. As soon as I have any further info I will let you all know. I started this a while back and the list of people interested started to trickle down. Since I had to pay for the mold and such I think I am going to have to buy the hoods outright. I havent decided yet. Modacar is no longer in the picture to help out on the buy. I am dealing direct with the manufacturer. I will update as soon as I can. Thank you for your time guys.. <BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by SirCruizer:<BR><STRONG>One of my friends just got carbon fiber vinyl from <A HREF="http://www.stickercity.com" TARGET=_blank>www.stickercity.com</A> and he put it on his hood his gas tank cover and a couple other places...
