New CF Hood for the SVX!?
I recently just found this website. It has a different style of CF hood. I kinda like it. Has anyone ever bought from them before? The pic isn't a svx hood, but i'll try emailing them to see if they can take a pic of the actually svx hood.

They have 100 in stock??? Why do I find that highly unlikely?? The hood pictured is obviously off of another car - wrong shape...
Have you called them yet to see if you can get a picture of the actual hood? Will it handle the stock latch and struts? -Bill

It's not bad looking at all. I'd need to see one installed on an SVX to be sure I like it more than the traditional scooped glass hoods for the SVX but based on the example in the pic I think it might look good on an SVX.

Not bad looking at all! I kinda like the reverse vents for heat expulsion...

where does one order such a hood with the 'extra' ? does she require much care? and does she stay put at 80+ mph?

$200 per hood ! ? !
That's an awesome price! But they need an order for 100 of them... are they just messing w/ us Id be willing to pay twice as much if we can do an order of 10. |

Sorry, I'm confused. Is it the hood at the begining of this thread that is the 100+ descussion or the legacy hood? I like the first better the the latter.

I'd change the boots on the hood to small pumps or something.....I like to see a bit more leg
I do like the ground effects on the mercedes or lexus on the left.....not sure I like the rim, but the performance tire looks good. |
