If I found one for $200 to $250, I would buy it too.

You're not going to get a quality hood for that price.

$350 is about as low as I saw the old CF hoods go for, and the quality isn't exactly impressive.

If they would be produced again, I would be interested. I do like the scoop because it keeps the engine bay much cooler than the stock hood.

Well if someone starts making the CF hoods again and there are made better. I would buy one.

The one I have is starting to crack.

back to the comment about a heavy trunk lid.... I have one I am working on right now. It is fiberglass, and it is not heavy. A CF lid would save probobly 2-3lbs and cost about $800. It would not be worth it. It has already been discussed that the weight you feel when the struts go bad is simply all in the hinge mechanism.

The car came with it. He got it when there was a group buy for them. I checked with the company someone posted the other day and they said that they no longer produce them.

You would have to have one made. As far as I know there are no more SVX carbon fiber hoods left to buy, untill some one makes more.
