Talked with Street concepts. Here's the details:

They said that they are willing to make us a sample hood to see if we like the fitment and quality. for this, each buyer will have to put down a 15 dollar not refundable deposit. if you guys like the quality, i'll give them the money and they will make the rest of the hoods. if you don't, i'll refund your money minus the 15 dollars. This may be your last chance to get in on a CF hood.

Prices
for people with 150 post or more = $285
for noobs= $300
shipping to 48 states= $150
So. Cali local pick- free

so is the $285 including, or not including the $15?

 

Including the 15

 

good lord $150 shipping

 

It costs $100 to ship an full front kit in the lower 48 so another $50 makes sence for a hood.

 

If the material/hood/quality looks good, then I might be interested. I live in corona, and work out in chino hills, so I'd be available for pick up. Is this a group buy where you need to have 10 buyers in order to get the deal?

 

we have 10 people

you would have to pick up the hood in santa ana though.

 

what's the difference between this one and the one that came out early before..?? and.. how much was the before one?? and.. the old one and the one that is on gb are same???

 

can you meet me in bakerfield field so i can pick it up?

i have to drive all the way from modesto to pick mine up if i were to get one

 

u guys have 10 im 11 if the quality is good and ill pick it up try to get rolled edges with cf skel not fiberglass ill show u pics of mines hopefully its not the same

 

From what was stated earlier, it is a cf skeleton and not the fiberglass one, it is also Grade AA. Not sure about getting rolled edgest though...

 

It's the same gb as the one before. The last one fell through because not enough people stayed in, this time we have enough interest. It also never hurts to have more though!

So anyone interested you can still get in on this before it's over!

 

man from wat i was told in an earlier post it was fiberglass skel non rolled edges and most likely its tgonan be like the one i bought n that shits not fucken worth it and thats a warning to all yall

 

damn, shipping to 48 states??? wtf, how bout hawaii!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

If i remember correctly, it was as much as the hood to ship it ocean freight.

 

Welp, here's the original groupbuy post:
http://www.acura-cl.com/forums/showt...hreadid=123836

 

Taken from original cf hood GB

 

u sure that it has a cf skeleton and it is grade AA?

 

its not AA if it has a firberglass skel

 

I don't like it being by post count, there are a lot of valuable members that don't have a high post count.

 

Shouldn't it be by registered date? Due to the fact that there are many post whores.

 

btw, u have 2 DrDre's in your list of ten. you should've just said like $335 + $100 shipping or something like that to avoid bitching about shipping... same thing. pretty good price if u ask me. good luck!

 

Yeah, DrDre1443 is going to buy 2 hoods...

 

Where was it stated that it had a fiberglass skeleton? Could you please show me/us the thread?

 

yeah it's a fiberglass skeleton grade A. but we'll see how it turns out.

Duece- i emailed VIS just to see what they would say about the GB. if they give me a good enough price, i'll hook it up.

 

koo thanx let me know if they can make rolled edges if not let me know how the hood goes

 

i had someone back through my grill with a hitch and screwed my hood,latch,and bumper so im probably in this GB too let me know whats up

 

How long is this group buy going on for? I need a new hood badly. If it will run until the next month I'll have enough funds to jump in on this. If so you guys can count me in.

lets get this thing rollin

 

I assume we don't have to have the orders in immediatly, as its going to take a bit of time to throw that cash together. Hopefully 2-3 weeks i'll have it all. I don't see why i shouldn't, baring some unforeseen circumstances.

 

Let's see what TeamBlurryCL can get us with VIS, might be a better quality/design...

 

True

 

i got to see a carbon fiber hood on a car they other day. looks real good!

But, I've been swayed not to get fiberglass skeleton.
So I'm not buying a hood unless TeamBlurry has got something going on with VIS


By the way, did any of you all get a message from someone wanting to sell some VIS hoods?

 

i'm down with geting a hood from VIS. unless the hood from the GB is the grade AA shit and it fits well, i'm all down for the GB.

 

i agree with CLpower, many of us don't have high post. so if thats the case then i should start being a post whore to get my post up.

BTW: just my opinion! (pricing the hood by post is kinda prejudice)

 

Ok, you should price it by join date

 

that still doesn't help me to get a cheaper price.

 

any word on the vis hoods yet?

 

I know TeamBlurryCL is on here every day and hes working on getting us a better hood ! I am sure that he will let us know as soon as he finds out have patience ......

 

if we go with streetconcepts instead of vis you think that it would be possible to get the hood in that titanium carbon fiber?
