Carbon Fiber Hood for the Z

I am tired of how easy it is to dent these aluminium hoods and want to get a carbon fiber replacement. The only one I found is out of japan and cost over $1,000.00 !! It will take at least 2 months to import it in.

I did some research and found we can get our own done for less then $500. A company in Arlington, Texas
completeaerokits.com
can have them made at their plant in China but we have to purchase 10 and provide them with a hood to make the mold. It will take no more then 3 months to get the first 10 back. I would like to find 10 people willing to go in with me on this. It will require you to put up $400 for that length of time but you will save at least $400. Complete will be selling them for $800 each once production is in full force.

Anyone interested in going in with me either post here or email me jandrcko@ticnet.com for more inf

Update

Just a little clarification. The total price for this OEM model carbon fiber hood is $400 + shipping. This a group buy that I am trying to set up so we all save some money. I am putting up the hood needed to make the mold. If you are interested in being one of the ten (minimum) people going in on this you will need to deposit $200 now and then pay the remainder once the hood is shipped.

I expect that it will take about two months from the time I order the hoods until they are in the USA and ready to ship.

The hoods will be manufactured by completeaerokits.com out of Arlington, Texas in their own plant in China. The quality of their work is as good as anything coming out of japan or usa. The stand behind their product 100%

Retail price on this hood will be around $800 so get it now for 50%.
