Has anyone ever contacted Vis Racing in regards to a CF Hood? When I was the meet on Sunday a kid said all you have to do is call them and they will custom make a hood for you for around $500. I then asked him do we have to provide the hood and he said nope. My next question is why haven't anyone done this sooner??

 

Why don't you call them up and confirm what the kid told you at the meet.
If it cost $500.00 for them to make you a custom hood without having to sacrifice
your own...

Let me know what's up.

 

I would do it in an instant, all responses I have gotten about carbon fiber is that they have to build the mold. That kid might have had a car with a preexisting mold, which is why he didn't have to provide a hood. If they have not made a cl hood before, they would have to get one to create a mold, unless they are simply wrapping stock hoods, which isn't what any of us really want. If they can create a mold without a hood, they would be c/f pimps. Give em a call and see what they say about a 1st gen cl hood. I would love to know if this can be done.

 

was this kid driving a civic by any chance...

if its actually true, i'd love a CF hood

 

Word up!

Raise teh roof. Go dj...go dj.

 

go dj, that my dj, go dj that my that my, RAISE THE ROOF!

 

im down for a cf hood

 

cuz it's not just $500.. and shipping is like $150..

we had lots of gbs of this cf hood.. but they all failed.. cuz lots of reasons..

 

remember the guy who was sellin his cl and wanted a stock hood.. he said he'd mail his cf hood for your stock hood. straight up. but it had to be black.. the only reason why i didnt do it is it was raining season here in fla. and i couldnt bear to see prescious w/o a hood for a week. but now i can kick my own ass for not doin it.

 

got a call from VIS last week for a CF hood it was 1500 for the mold for the hood and i had rights to the mold and basically i bought the mold from them and i could have sold it back to them for much cheaper i think

and then each hood was 800 bucks

 

LOL!!! damn hahahahaha!!
not worth it = )

 

Damn that is ridiculous. They still haven't called me back yet. I'm gonna try my local shop to see if they can get anything better from them.

 

I've ordered a CF Hood through Carbon Fiber Products. VIS is making the hood and they will be shipped at the end of September. The guy you want to talk to is Carlo. His number is 951-454-8081. After shipping it is right around 500$ Just ask about the CF hood for the CL and he will get you set up.

 

we know this already. there was a group buy and 20 ppl jumped on it and its over and done with
