Oh carlo, just so you know, i'm moving, but I won't be any farther from my zip code. Once I move, I'll email you with my new shipping address.

For those who are participating in this group buy...
Once you receive you new hoods...is anyone game for selling their factory hoods. I am currently in search of a regular hood for my 97 2.2...the color of my car is Primrose mist (lavender). I am in the Atlanta area...and probably won't be replacing parts on my car until late next month.
Let me know...PM me or email me at andrealanette@hotmail.com

well, i got quoted $1200 for a new hood from acura painted. So if i was selling mine used, i would probably sell it for about the same price as a CF hood...so maybe you should just buy the cf hood??

Well...the hood is like super expensive. There aren't any places that sell that hood aftermarket. There are no salvage yards in the STATE that has the hood...I have had mechanics search for me! I don't want to pay $900 for an Acura hood for an eight year old car. Unfortunately, I rear ended someone while bending over to grab some ish that slid out of my passenger seat and totally effed it up! The guy I hit wasn't too pressed and I didn't want to file a claim!! Insurance is a mother for me...so I am trying to bargain with you guys...how much would it cost shipped??? I mean...if it is still considerably less ...it's worth it to me.

Things to consider....shipping, if you dont find one in your area, hoods are shipped via 18 wheeler and cost might be around $100 to ship. Then consider if the hood needs to be repainted or fixed at all....
lastly.....check websites like www.car-part.com
Just like I just did…and theres IS actually 2 hoods in your state.
1997
Hood
Acura CL BLK 1 HR $275
Sam's Used Parts, Inc. USA-GA(Marbleton) E-mail 1-770-739-7815
1999
Hood
Acura CL HAS DINGS $Call
Four Lane Auto Parts USA-GA(Cartersville) E-mail 1-770-382-3399
bottom line...$600 is CHEAP for a CF hood. Especially a custom made one from VIS with only 20 being made...

the "test fit/prototype" is being sent the 1st week of Sept. Then the rest will come by
mid-Sept. to early Oct.
Carlo is going to ship them all out at the same time. So basically we'll see picts of the "testfit" one the first week of Sept. and then we all will recieve ours around a month after that...

You know, i was driving home lastnight and for some reason i started having wierd thoughts and....
As horrible and sad as it sounds, i realised that with all the wrecks members have been having lately, im sure someday we'll log in and the first post will be of one of us 16 posting picts of a wreck we've had, and the CF hood distroyed...
Sad to think about, but so many members have been in wrecks lately, i wonder who will be the first involved in a wreck where the hood gets broken...(hopefully its not any of us )
(Ive had ["2"] 5mph fendor benders which were both paid w/o insurance...knowing my luck, it'll probably be me who wrecks first.. )
Sorry, wierd thoughts...hopefully I didnt jynx us!?!
